Default Going to lower it

Well, I figure it is about time to replace the tired stock suspension. Might as well lower it while I'm at it.

So what does everyone recommend when it comes to springs, shocks and control arms?

This is a tried and true combination right here:

Springs:

Struts & shocks:
http://www.uprproducts.com/strange-m...-strut-87.html
http://www.uprproducts.com/strange-m...-shock-79.html

^note- those are Fox length, which are shorter than SN95 length. (better for lowering)

Control arms:

Hey Evan,

I's definitely a good idea to upgrade your suspension, these cars are indeed getting older.

I am a huge fan of the Eibach Pro-System-Plus myself and absolutely loved it on my previous 2004 GT.

It comes with everything you need to truly transform your suspension from the springs to the shocks to the sway bars.

It really woke the car up and I had no complaints what-so-ever.

Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions!

-Will

I ran that combo on my daily driven 04 GT several years ago. Loved it!
