It looks like the link on the "panhead" post shows a good one by BMR products that's only $129.00. That looks like a pretty decent bar for the money and it's adjustable. I noticed my handeling improved quite a bit by lowering the car.

I think all you need is the adjustable panhard bar. If you really wanted to add something later I would add the upper adjustable control arm that would allow you to get your pinion angle right. That way you have about 3 degrees of pinion angle at rest. As far as the roll center and all that crap, two inches of drop is not enough to throw it off that bad and besides who said the factory had the perfect roll center. Two inches of drop could have braught it closer than the factory did. That's why there are so many products out there for Fox Mustang suspensions because the factory set up left a lot on the table. Who's to say the 05 GT has the perfect set up right off the showroom floor? All I know is my car turns a lot better than before I lowered it. I'm having a professional suspension shop aligne the front end to get it right. I'll let you know how it drives then as well.

I had Eibach sportlines on my 01 Trans Am. After a couple of hundred of miles the rear started to sag. This was the case with many Fbody owners. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up. Maybe its different for Mustangs

05 Mustang owner soon
