I have made up my mind... when I get my tax return money... here is what is going on the baby:

http://www.autocarparts.com/images/Eibach/ebaich_pro-system.jpg

Part # 35101.780 Eibach Pro System, with ProDamper shocks, and pro-kit springs.

Now... here is my question. This being my first Mustang, and my first suspension work on said Mustang... will I NEED any of these extra parts?

-Caster/Camber plates (Probably from Maximum motorsports)?
-Bumpsteer kit (Steeda)?
-Adj. Panhard bar/brace?

I know I will need an alignment, that is a given.... but how about those parts I listed? Any ideas?

:moved: for ya, you will get more responses in this section


I have the Eibach Pro springs on my 2005 GT, w/out Prodamper struts.

Did not require Caster/Camber plates, just an alignment. Installed on my stang 2 years now with no issues.

those extra items are needed when the car is lowered 2inch or more. i don't know how much the kit you're getting lowers it but like i said as long as it's not 2 inch or more you're fine. i have the steada setup on mine and have no problems. i'm very pleased

I have a similar kit on my 04. You don't really need anything else. But if you want to fine tune your alignment you will need caster camber kits.

You'll notice the year axle shifted to one side if you keep the stock panhard back there. I went with a CHE. It was not very expensive IIRRC.

I would just get the panhard bar along with the kit. That should be fine if you are not roadracing or drag racing and dont need the extra adjustability.

U should be fine with the kit and alignment, panhard wouldn't hurt for tuneability.
