Default Suspension Question

I just purchased Ford Racing springs and shocks, when I put this on what all needs to be adjusted, or is not enough of a drop to effect anything. Any input would be great, Im having it done Monday, thanks for the help.

Yes you'll want an alignment. You'll also need camber bolts for that you can get Eibach camber bolts for about $40. Ishould also consider the rear sway bar as well as an adjustable pandhard bar and brace since lowering will change the geometery. Ford says it's not necessary for thier handling pack but most recommend it. You can also go with lower control arms which help to reduce wheel hop.....

Personally, I'd go for a minimum of what's in my sig (suspension-wise). But hey, that's just me.
