FnSweet06 · 07-17-2008, 07:18 PM

..Should i go with for my 06'. Im thinking about going with the Prokit. Im running 18" Roush wheels

Go for it.

Captainsteve57 · 07-18-2008, 05:21 PM

I have the pro kit. handling is a lot better looks good with 18's and the ride does not change that much. If you go lower the ride will get much more harsh.

what did you need to get done to your car other than the pro kit? did you need a new alignment or any other parts?

FnSweet06 · 07-25-2008, 07:19 PM

the sportline's are more of a drop then the prokit? is that right

xtreme02GT · 07-28-2008, 07:35 PM

Yup! But not by much

FnSweet06 · 07-28-2008, 08:39 PM

now im leaning towards sportlines..ya think ima go with sportlines

xtreme02GT · 07-29-2008, 08:15 PM

You should, well I think so

Kuro · 08-02-2008, 05:29 PM

who ever said they lowered their car with nothing else than springs is wrong haha,

your going to need an alignment unless you get camber adjusters and do it yourself. plus, the rear end WILL shift if you lower it. so your gonna need an adjustable panhard bar. your lower controll arms will also lose their center and they need relocation brackets

FnSweet06 · 08-02-2008, 07:20 PM

^ehh sounds like alot of bs i really really dont need, im just gonna go with springs , cc plates and (shocks and struts later on in the future), the car only gets driven maybe once or twice a week anyways.

Kuro · 08-03-2008, 12:11 PM

dude, if you dont adjust the rear end your diff will start to leak, and with a GT you will fuck your drive train if you plan on doing any hard driving.

im not selling you shit, im just telling you, your going to want it if you plan on actually driving the car. just lowering will make it handle worse. plus our stock shocks and struts cant keep up with lowering springs.

it would be much wiser to just save up and at least get an adjustable panhard bar and new shocks/struts at the same time. because if you just throw springs on there your going to really regret it.

I went with the Ford racing Springs. I have not changed anything else on it and I have not had any problems yet. I did this about 1 yr ago.
