Default Car lowered with Pics!

Well I posted a couple weeks ago to ask for pix and wanted to see lowered stangs and you guys came through for me. Here is the link https://mustangforums.com/m_2808935/tm.htm.
I got it finished last week and got pictures that I wanted you to take a look at. I went with the Vogtlands and I think I made a good choice. They are not the best but here you go:




Thanks for the inspiration...

I did the LCA's with anti-squat brackets. No shocks yet. The car rides pretty nice for lowering it, I really thought it would be worse.

Looks great! I agree with StowesStang, it's the right amount of drop, not too low. Well done!

"I did the LCA's with anti-squat brackets. No shocks yet. The car rides pretty nice for lowering it, I really thought it would be worse"

Tell me more about the anti-squat brackets. I'm reading where people put these or 'relocation' brackets on when they put LCA's on. Reason?

Here I'll let Crazy Al explain it. After you lower the car the LCA's are now not level and the car won't pull as hard off the line. It isn't vital but it puts more power to the wheels.
