Default Lower Springs?

Me and a friend are thinking about lowering our mustangs. His is a 2002 V6 mine is a 2000 V6. What we are wondering if we get these springs will we need anything else besides them? Is there anything else needed to make this work? Thanks for any help.

Unless you drop it 2" or more, you won't need anything else. I got a brand new set of Rousch Racing Springs from e-bay for $140.00. Lowered front 1.5", and rear .75". Alignment came out great. And it does make it handle a bit better.

Those Eibach's will give you a 2' drop. You will also need CC plates and shocks eventuallu since the stock ones won't last to long.

what are ya guys using your stangs for. Daily driver, drag, road or auto X racin.

We use our cars for daily drivers. Well he will be dropping his car about 2 inches or maybe a bit more if possible. But my car already seems lowered over a stock 2000 mustang. So I only want to go about an inch.

Yeah we are kind of looking at the Eibach Pro Kit but we don't know if we need the CC plates. Some say yes and some say no, and also would we need new shocks. This will make our decision in what we do, or when we would be able to do it. Thanks for the help.
