notice where the folks advising you to lower it live! If you don't live in the flatlands you will be the one paying for all the repairs, not them!
So stop, catch your breath, and go back and look at how high the classic Mustangs and Shelbys were. Then you'll realize how overblown this super-low look is.
Not to mention how just lowering the car with just springs won't give you a single performance benefit.

I'm gonna replace the shocks & struts too. Still debating about what kind and leaning towards FRPP. I wonder how stiff that ride would be. I'm not doing this for performance, although less body roll would be cool.
Its nice that D-specs are adjustable, but I would never adjust them. At least not after figuring out what setting I want.

LT's hang maybe 1/2 below the frame. But the cats are a good 1 1/2 inch below the frame.

I don't have LT's on my car (yet) but I've been told that Kooks LT's have a better fit.
