No.


Do some more research on the dampers, I think you can do alot better than the Eibachs.

I'm a new owner myself....just yesterday... not sure how others on here feel about eibach + stang but I'll give u my experience with other cars. First, they make a real good product -- durable and long lasting.. Product wise they are arguably one of the most dependable brands. However, on cars I have done for others (in the 20's) drops using eibach - I have always noticed that the drop rating they advertise is a little fudged. Expect it not to drop as much as they say. Now this can be a good thing or a bad thing. Last night when I was looking over the new ride I am still amazed at how high this car sits factory. Hope this helps a little. Kenny

i'd go with the Tokico Blue dampeners before the eibachs. Probably better quality and a whole lot cheaper. Your BEST option however is gonna be Bilsteins with koni being a close second, but once you spend that much money you may as well go bilstein. Looking back on it, i would of gone bilstein. Atleast in the back, it was so cheap..100 bones a side for the rear.
