Its hard to tell on a black car, but you can see the front is higher than the rear. Its gotten worse than that too. I'll get pics up as soon as i get a hold of a camera

Well Ive had my Sportlines for about a year n a half and they seem to be holding up ok. But if they do sag whats a good replacement? I would rather just replace the rears if it gets bad. Unless I have $$$ at the time and can splurge for coil over's at all 4 corners!!!
This sucks... I thought Eibach was supposed to be like the industry leader when it comes to performance springs...

i bought roush springs for the rear cuz they were cheap and i could find just the rear springs easily without buying all four.

They didnt raise the back as much as i wanted them to tho. I really wish that i got some rear Steeda sport springs to put back there.

and mity2....i posted a pic with the roush springs in on the other forum, but im happy to post it again. The new rear roush springs probably lowered the rear about 1.6" i'd say total....they lifted the ear by about an inch from my sagging sportlines.

Decided to call eibach today claiming I was sumone interested in buying some sportlines for my mustang and record the conversation. I told the guy I wanted some for my car but had read on severel mustang forums that they had issues with sagging. He replied with a ''if they do sag call the company you bought them from and we'll replace them free of charge. I thought to myself hell yea! then I remembered..I dont remember where I bought them! You guys should do the same and record what they tell you. Most cell phones have the option to record phone calls. Try it and post what they tell you.

How long does it normally take for them to sag? I bought mine off a E-bay store, dont remember the name of the place. Also since on the websight it advertises a million mile warranty there has to be a way to do something about it. Maybe better business beurrow? I'll have to kep a close eye on the rear of my car from now on.

I just looked at Roush springs and they lower rear by less than an inch. The sportlines list lowering rear by 1.8 inches. I wouldnt want alot of rake to my car. Also Sportlines are progressive, while Roush are linear rate.

There are 2 types of the roush springs. One lowers .75'' and the other 1-1.8''. Look into steeda also.

I must be a tard... I cant find the Roush springs that lower more than 3/4 inch for the rear. Any ideas where to get the ones that lower about as much as Sportlines?? Also I checked out the full Steeda catalog and couldnt find any rear only springs.

Only complaints I have seen with the sagging spring issue is with the Sportlines and not the Pro-Kit. At least I hope so, I have the Pro-Kit

i bought the ones that advertised 3/4" and look (earlier on this page the pic of my car) at how my rear end sits with them....it ended up lowering the rear about 1.5 or 1.6 inches. its weird how they do that, but roush springs have a problem with sagging also....the only difference is that they start off a lot higher than the sportlines so after they settle and sag a bit, they are still higher.
