On their website, it says the Pro Kit lowers it 1.3 in the front and 1.4 in the rear....

Just wondering, why do most springs always lower the car more in the rear? who wants the back end of their stang lower than the front?

Eibach Prokit. Lowers the car 1 1/2 inch all around.

Because the rear of our cars is higher from the factory. Haven't you noticed? I think you need another cold one
Are the back ends really higher than the front? I know the Roush lowering kit lowers the front 1 inch and 1.25 in the rear..

I wouldnt know, havent picked my GT up yet![]

There's like an inch and a half difference in the back. It's that much higher.

Get a butt pad.
Or an air ride system.
Or buy a Cadillac.

Lets see. Seller has 144 negatives. Must be good.
You believe this claim?

SPRINGTECH owners are the original owners of Suspension Techniques. Started in 1979 and sold to Belltech In 1995. Springtech owners have been in the performance coil spring business over 35 years. They have Sold their springs to major name brand companies , Belltech , Tokico , Koni , Neuspeed , Trailmaster , Eibach ,Fabtech , Sprint , and Chassis Tech to name a few. Springtech quality and performance is superior to any coil spring in the market today!

He does not even know what color springs you will
be receiving.....
**DISPLAY PICTURE**COILS MAY BE BLUE OR BURGUNDY**
didnt really lower my truck much
Item did not function as described although I was specifically informed it would

bushings were old they cracked the 1st day seller was rude and hung up 2 times!

item is great but packaging was a little torn....and springss were sticking out

very rude with no help. do not order from him

Sent wrong item, did not have right item, and wanted to charge 25% for refund

Not happy had to take shocks to a shop to get pieces pressed so I could use them

Upper ball joint hole needed to be machined (about 1/16" to small)

i put these struts on and in less than one week the front right strut blew out

half of kit was not correct, gave wrong phone number, wouldn't respond to emails

didnt go nearly as low as expected up front..had to machine blocks to level

wrong ball joints shipped and one ball joint had been used or tried on

TRUCK IS LOWER IN BACK!! YES PROFESSIONALY INSTALLED!

Item received in used and junky condition, just a complete rip off. DONT BID!

DONT FIT,THEY DONT RETURN EMAILS,IM STUCK WITH JUNK THANKS FOR NOTHING

Eibach discontinued the p/n, so order could not be fulfilled. Next time!

Keep the stock springs and add Tokico Dspecs. You can soften them up all you want for that "Sugar daddy Getto ride"
