Just installed rear Roush springs. It was much easier than I was expecting, took about 35 minutes. Itdropped the car about 3/4" and leveled it out, but I am wondering if itwillsettle someand drop a little more?

I had them on for a little while before i changed them out for Eibach's they settled a little bit more but not much.

Mine settled a little. I like the stance mine has now. Too much of a drop makes you look like a gangster...IMO.

The drop is just not what Roush states (3/4") unless you
get the matching Roush shocks as well.
Measure with an empty tank of gas, then with a full tank.
I took measurements from every place I could before the
install and compared them to after with almost no gas.
11/16" drop gas empty and 13/16" drop full tank.

So at half tank of fuel it would be 3/4" drop.

Correct.

Yes, 3/4" with the Roush shocks being utilized as well in this set-up.
They have "settled" in the last few months to be 3/4" with the
fuel tank being nearly empty and nothing in the trunk.

Maybe I'll just throw some sand bags in the trunk to get it a little lower. [sm=signs006.gif]

Or get under there with a torch and heat up the
springs until the desired height is achieved. [sm=signs006.gif]
Be sure to avoid the gas tank...

Just get the springs. I got the shocks too, but the difference in height and ride is negligible.
