I had the first set of control arms that sharad posted on my old car and it jacked the pinion angle up so bad I had to run the factory uppers. They were different lengths, and my car is lowered (whose mustang isnt lol). Made terrible noises in the rear until I fixed that angle. They were great products, but you might need a set that is adjustable to get your angles right

Mines not. Driving around town scraping your **** around shopping centers and speed bumps is one of the trashiest things ever to do to a car. My mid pipe bottoms out on some speed bumps as it is and i'm still stock height. I also don't want to throw my weight transfer out the window. I also happen to live with a driveway with about a 60 degree angle.....kinda blows. Unlowered looks like **** but I don't have a whole lot of choice. I may try to drop it an inch or so one day if I can retain some weight transfer and move to a diff place with a normal driveway.

Think I'll put some money aside in about a month for these then.

I see for LCA #1 they don't use the sway bar. I believe I want to use my sway bar while on the street to maintain some comfort
