RICVA05,

Again, another awesome pic of your car. I finally got one of mine, but I'm not happy with the glare. Did you link the pic from your URL?

I'm the guy who helped RicVA05 lower his car. The lack of adjustable Panhard bar will only cause problems when you try to use really wide tires. Because of the angle of the bar at stock ride height, any amount you lower the car will cause it to shift to the drivers side. The more you lower it the more it shifts to the drivers side.

I knew that.LOL

Right, " The more you lower it the more it shifts to the drivers side." that's the problem, the rear axle is moved left when you lower the '05 cars and even at rest the rear axle is off the chassis centerline. This offset causes your car's front track center line to not be in alignment with the car's rear track center line causing a differential in left vs. right turns and even going down the road in a straight line. This is different compared to stock ride height which is normally centered in the chassis with the driver and half a tank of fuel.

Many people may not notice any real problems, just a difference in left and right turns when they drive the car hard. If you do drive the car hard enough to notice the difference in the way the car handles in turning right vs. left regularly you will be one of the people who will have tire wear issues unless you get the rear axle recentered. Those folks who say there are no problems when you lower an '05 are not driving their cars hard enough to realize the Mustang's cornering potential and hence will likely only occassionally notice a weirdness in turn in once in a while.

Get a rear panhard bar that is adjustable and find a guy who knows what they are talking about to do the alignment. You must center the rear axle FIRST then do a 4 wheel alignment, the difference in handling is not trivial at all once you know what it should feel like when turning in BOTH directions.

Cheers
