lowering my car
i just got the eibach pro kit lowering springs and tokico shocks and struts is there a how to our your website on how i should go about lowering my car without hurting anything/myself lol
On 79-04Mustangs you do not need a spring compressor if you have a jack + jack stands.
What some do...
1. lift front of car with jack
2. place car securely/safely on jack stands
3. place jack under front control arm
4. unbolt top of front strut
5. slowly release jack to allow front control arm to drop all the way down
6. grab spring out of control arm once fully uncompressed/dropped
So basically if you do it the way above, you will not need a spring compressor.
Just be careful, and take all precautions!

Ok, in that article they are telling you to mark the plate simply to "record" your current alignment setting, so that you can put it back to the OEM settings, or compare to the OEM settings. You can eyeball this after you're done bolting everything back up.
Its always best to get a professional, two wheel alignment after lowering. So you'll want to give it a few days to settle, then go to an alignment shop. Never rely on your markings or guestimates.
