Roush rear lowering springs
i want to put in the roush rear lowering springs, just for looks. the front looks fine, just the rear looks a bit too high. i have 20's all around w/ 255/35 20 all around, but will change the rear to 275/35 soon. since these springs only lower about 1" will i need anything else like panhard bar, or anything like that? what about when i put in a 1 piece alum DS, can i just put in the DS without any other parts bc it is lowered 1"?

I had only the rears on my car done with H&R Race Springs (1.4" drop), and when I drove at night I was blinding oncoming traffic and people in front of me because of the new angle. I would suggest that you do both the front and back; however, you might be okay since you are only dropping the rear by an inch. Just some food for thought.

Shouldn't need anything else with just the rears. It's less than an inch difference, but it does make a nice difference. Granted, I have taller than stock tires, but still... It's perfect for this car. I can't lower the front or I'd hit everything in the road. With or without lowering, you'll want to replace the upper control arm with an adjustable one when you replace the driveshaft.

You may need a panhard but it's hard to tell until you do the lowering. I had to get one with the new tires (295/45) as the tire height was different then stock and caused the rear end to shift to the drivers side about 1/4". However, you will like the look with the Roush springs. I did both the front/rears and it just sits right.

+1 100% stock rear suspension should work fine.
As far as nice to haves, I would say UCA, adjustable LCA, adjustable panhard bar.
I will just happen to have all this done by November.
I too am going to install a alum D/S down the road and plan to check pinion angle just incase. With the above I should be able to change anything if I need to.
