So if I got the roush rear lowering springs, what else would i need with them? Do i need a new adjustable panhard bar or new adj lca's?? It's not a big drop so I was just wondering, please let me know. Thanks Also if anyone has pictures of just a .75" drop in the rear that would be great!

Jersey - I would guess that with only a 3/4 inch drop you are not going to see a need to further alter the suspension components. If you want to make sure you can always measure the rear axle vs. centerline to determine how far it has moved.

For larger drops it was recommended by the forum's suspension guru's to utilize and Adj. PH Bar, Adj. LCA's, and an adjustable UCA. I also replaced my shocks/struts with Tokico D-Spec's to allow me to adjust the rebound with the stiffer springs.

I got the BMR adjustable Panhard rod when I did Roush rear springs. The offset of the rear axle was too noticeable without the adj PHR.

how much are one of them?? and how bad is it without the panhard bar.

i never touched anything other than the springs. no uneven tire wear and no noticeable axle offset

Regardless of what a lot of peope will tell you, you won't "need" anything else. I've been running the pro-kit only for almost a year now with no problems at all.

When I did my roush stage 2 kit I also did the adj panhard bar. I called up roush and they said it was not needed but I did it anyway.

It will cost around $175 or so, but since you are under there - you might as well

My left tire was sticking out more than my right tire, so I needed the adj PHR to re-center the wheels.

With 0.75", you shouldnt need a panhard bar, unless you want the rear end aligned perfectly.

It depends on the tires you're running out back. I was planning to go with 295's, and the horizontal translation would have been very evident.

To me, it was evident even with the stock Pirellis.
