All together, depending on the quality you want it will cost you. You can go to Maximum motorsports and you can go to stang suspension. I bought my stuff from stang suspension and MM to get the lowest prices. But remember, that as you get Stiffer springs, you have to get better shocks. The ProKit from eibach will give you the kind of drop you are talking about, but its not the most popular kit. Lots of people like it and lots of people hate it. As for H&R, its great stuff but expensive.

175 shipped for eibach Pro Kit 1.5 Drop. only 500 miles on them if that! Too low for Florida. Will take off if you'd like them.

American muscle for the springs( H&R SS)and if you are looking for KYB AGX adjustables eBay is where I got mine brand new for $300. Get some MM CC plates too if you are goin to lower and maybe some poly spring isolators.

In my opinion I would go with a suspension kit instead of jsut lowering springs. Roush makes a good one as well as ford racing. That will lower the car but increase the performance also... however it is a little more expensive...

If I were you I would call Maximum Motor sports and tell them what you want and they will hook you up.

Default RE: lowering kit

ive been told that the back is higher than the front (out of the box) but eibach's sport springs take the front down 2 and the back 1.8 making the back even higher up from the front then it already was, why is this?

Also anyone know anything about Intrax or Hotchkis?

The car gets a staggered look, higher back than front. That is a good thing. It gives it a better look as well as helps aero dynamics. Also, the front is higher in many cases than the rear. Take a look at the wheel spacing some time. Companies like H&R and Eibach know what they are doing, so don't worry if they say they did something a certain way that sounds weird. Just trust them, its right.
