Here's the PHB I recommend:

The struts aren't offset to the side when you lower the car like the rear end is.

Looking for the answer on this as well !!

I have had the eibach pro kit (just springs) installed for a few years on the stock PHB

Just installed steeda PHB and LCAs

Did not install the LCA relocation brackets as it says they should be welded...

How do you know how to center the car or make adjustmens ?!

The Whiteline PHB is more expensive but its a beast. Built like a freaking tank might be a tad heaver than your standard PHB too now that I think about it. It's great though works wonders.

I dropped an 1" and set my adjustable to match the stocker and it was perfect. You can always drop it and measure, then you will know for sure if you need one.

As for 5.0 or not: The new 5.0 is always an instant yes!!!

This is B.S. and nothing to worry about.

Yes! Save your money and wait to buy a Watt's link. Big difference in handling and grip and makes the car handle the same left or right unlike the panhard bar.

to re-center my body 1/2" to the drivers side. Get some brackets for grip too!
