Default RE: Installed roush rear springs

I installed a set this past weekend. So far, I'm very happy with them.

I didn't measure the height prior to installing them but I did measure rear axle placement. My axle was 2 1/8" on the passenger side and 1 7/8" on the drivers side, measured using a plumb bob from the edge of the wheel well to center of the wheel..

After install, the rear axle is 2" on both sides and the front and rear are equal height from the ground to the center of the wheel well. I think the measurement is 28 9/16.

I have an adj. panhard bar on the way but I reckon I don't need it to adj. axle placement.

I added an adjustablepanhard bar for stability reasons only, not clearance issues. Adjustable upper/lower control arms might help in the launches to keep the rear tires from spinning too much.

Hi I have a V6 05 Mustang and want tolower the rear only too.Did you have to add a panhard bar when you added the rear springs?
You should, in case the axle gets off center. I didn't until a year later tho

I measured mine after install and it was dead on center, actually better than factory
