acutally just get springs and all the supporting mods, and see what you have left...

If you buy Steeda springs (1"Drop F 1.5" Drop rear) you need no other suspension parts. Any lower requires camber plates, etc.

depends on how much you drop it. if it's only 1.5" and 1" front you may not need the camber plates or the panhard bar. i just dropped mine today but only 1" in the rear and the diff. didn't shift at all. i bought a adjustable panhard bar from racecraft and it really isn't built correctly.(for one it's too long even when adjusted all the way in it's only 3/4" shorter than stock+they used right hand threads on both sides of the bar so when you try to adjust it it just shortens one end and lengthens the other so the overall length doesn't change). so i don't advise anyone to buy theirs. get a steeda.
