Default Suspension Packages

I have a 2002 gt hard top and i was thinking of lowering it. I thought all i'd need was the springs, but from what i've heard is that you need other stuff too. Where can i find a kit that has everything i need and will last a long time?

That's the bullitt kit.
Here's a cheaper price: http://www.buyfordracing.com/shop/pr...roducts_id=458

The only thing is that the drop is very subtle. If you want a more dramatic drop, you'll need to consider Eibach or H&R springs. When you go that low, you'll want to look into extended, Ball Joints, bump steer kit, caster/camber plates, and different shocks and struts.

You don't need all that stuff as long as you keep it around 1.5 and lower. People just get eibach pro-kit and nothing else and they are fine. But, many people like to just upgrade their parts while the car is going to be torn apart anyways.

That is what I will be doing also, but I am going with Eibach pro-kit instead of H&R.

All good stuff but I kinda wish J.R. (Granatelli) could do some serious design work instead of another companies part and sending it off to china to get duped and then sell it at a lower price.
