Suspention ... 04 GT 40th Anniversary
I'm wanting to lower my car a hair not too much just to give it that mean look. Am I going to need struts, casters, and all the works or will be well off with springs and shocks? Wanting to know if I need to go all out or if smaller means will mess up my ride.

If you just want a drop I would say just replace/clip the springs. The only thing you will need to do is get an alignment so you dont have excessive camber.

If you just want to lower a little, get the Cobra springs, as I believe they're a bit shorter, and a little stiffer.. Toss the isolators, and get a decent alignment, with a smidge of negative camber, and fairly neutral toe..

usually when you go lower than 1.5 inches is when you'll need the shocks and struts and caster/camber plates. several people just get the pro kit springs and are fine, but if you want a better ride quality get the shocks and struts also. brenspeed has shock&strut packages for a good price thats where i got mine. i went with a 2in drop so i upgraded all of it, i doubt you'll need to

I don't believe the cobra springs will work, they have IRS. I went with Ford C springs and Tokico HP shocks/struts and I couldn't be happier. I got a little over
an inch and a 1/4 drop in the front and 3/4" in the rear. Looks, handles, and rides great. I did not need CC plates either. Total came to about $420 for everything.
