Prokit or sportlines
I want to drop my 01 mustang but not sure how much. Does anyone have pictures of it dropped with sportlines or prokits. It would help alot. also, I ve herd sportlines drop the height to much and cause frame damage.

RE: Prokit or sportlines
You should go ahead and get them. I wondered the same thing, and now I have to wait to get them in to install the front springs. I bought steeda plates just so I wouldnt have to bother with drilling holes...You have to make sure its the 3-bolt design though cause steeda makes 4-bolts too, just FYI.
If your wondering why you need them, when you lower the car it will give you a negative camber angle (looking from the front, the top of the wheels point inward). The stock plates only adjust caster angle (the tilting of the steering axis from vertical) I think, but Im not sure. The plates will allow you to get a proper alignment so you dont ware out your tires, steering and possibly your new suspension parts.
