SHOCKS/STRUTS for Eibach pro kit?
What shocks struts do you guys recommend. Only people who have them please respond. Dont want to hear opinions of people who do not have experience. How bout the eibach shocks and struts? any have them? I think it would be better to keep all the suspension parts from the same company.

Not really on this specific topic, but I know if I was ever going to consider some sort of FI that I'd do a little poking around on my own before asking questions that might be as obvious as day/night to you. See what I'm trying to say?
I guess this I can't make this a specific recommendation, since I don't meet your minimum qualification requirements, but you can hardly go wrong with either of the two adjustables that have been commonly mentioned and both of which are available from at least one vendor/site sponsor. So you'll have to track down those brand names/models on your own. (I do have the lower-level but still adjustable variety of one of those on a different car.)

RE: SHOCKS/STRUTS for Eibach pro kit?
i have the eibach pro kit and just got the tokico D-spec shocks/struts and love them.
i considered all the others too such as bilstein, eibach, FRPP, ect...but when it came down to it, too many people sing the praises of these S/S and i like the price as wellas being fully adjustable

RE: SHOCKS/STRUTS for Eibach pro kit?
I asked for experiences of someone who has the pro kit and a certain shock strut. Best way to get that is from forum members. Its fairly difficult to look on vendors/sponsor sites and get opinions of people who have the pro=kit and a certain set of shocks/struts. Im on the forums to ask and learn about personal experiences. I can read Mustang Mags and read about all different types of shocks/struts but I have already done that. Just asking for opinions of people who have the different set ups. Not asking for opinions of how to research. Please read my post and you will see that there was no reason for you to respond.

Not entirely true (but if youread the whole of https://mustangforums.com/m_4880383/...tm.htm#4956956instead of just replying to the one post there you might have found at least some hints). Anyway, what's wrong with the suggestion to do a little of you own research here? All you have to do is lookpast the blunt phrasing.

Ummm . . .
That was your second question, which you'll note that I left alone. As a stretch to being on-topic here, it might have been a good thing if I knew who makes Eibach's dampers as I might have been able to give you an independent point of view or a slightly different way of looking at the situation. But I don't have that info off the top of my head and was disinclined to chase it down.
What I was responding to was the more general first question that you presented, that being
for which I do think I have sufficient credentials to make the general suggestions that I did.
Free life lesson #2 - don't be so blinded by hypersensitivity to the wayother people respond (or that they contribute at all)that you can't see the help being givenin themessage.

I just used the search function. I entered - eibach pro kit struts shocks
I entered this in the 2005-2008 Mustang section. Not v8 specific. Not handling section. It presented me with .......
84 records returned.
I don't live in here. I check in every other day or so. Sometimes every day if I have time when I check my email after arriving home from work. My number of posts has been compiled over 2 years.
You asked a stupidquestion and got a stupidanswer. I presume it isn't the first time.
