Default Suspension Tech

Hey,

I just received my Edelbrock adjustable track bar for the rear suspension, it looks sweet! I have a set of the Roush rear springs oredered, which I should have by this time next week. The roush rear springs lower the back about 1", so it looks level with the front. I am aware of the issue of lowering springs move the axle to the right of the vehicle, which requires the adjustable panhard rod to bring the axle back to vehicle centerline. Has anyone lowered their Mustang 1" in the rear? and if so how much did it move the axle?

Funds are starting to get low, so more mods for the year is looking slim. I hope to get into a group buy on the stainless steel JBA shorty headers, the cheapest I have found is $475 +shipping from Massive Systems on Ebay. I also got a quote back from DTS on an aluminum driveshaft, $450 +shipping. These are some mods I have in mind, but not sure if I will complete them anytime soon.

Thanks!
