Well crap. Any ideas if I could us P Springs to drop 1 inch as stand alone, or do I need panhard, caster/camber plates, etc?

If you don't mind the wheel offset in the rear you don't need the panhard, and think you're fine at 1" without getting plates.

Thanks. Just keep seeing everyone else's stance. No more than I've gotten to drive my car lately, lowering isn't going to effect me much.

Guess I've been slacking about posting pictures of my car then to make you feel better. 4x4 suspension FTW.

At 1 inch you may or may not need a panhard....Good thing is you can always get one later if you need to center the axle. Also doubt you'll need CC plates either. If anything you can upgrade to GT500 Strut mounts. They are better than stock and you can install them Arrow inboard instead of outboard. This will help with any negative camber the drop may have given.

Just remember if you get the gt500 mounts you have to get the 05-10 struts. The 11-14 struts WILL NOT WORK with the GT500 mounts.

True, but he currently has an 05-09. Like Dave said though, if you plan plan on upgrading the shocks and struts you will have to make sure you get the 05-09 struts....
