Hello everyone, I put on a set of Eibach Pro's today, along with the BMR adjustable panhard bar. Attached are a couple of pics Also, to anyone who has already lowered their 05, or is thinking about it - I highly recommend getting an adjustable panhard bar to re-center the car. After putting the rear springs on, I put the adjustable bar on, based on the stock length. The passenger side of the car had a shift to the right of 3/4" compared to the right side of the car. A few turns of the adjusting mechanism on the bar (without having to remove it, I might add), and the car is now within 1/16" of being perfectly centered.

I'm very please with the drop these springs gave the car, and I'd like to thank Adrenalin for posting the directions/how-to a while back, it was a great help.

 

Another shot

 

And the BMR adjustable panhard bar

 

Sweet, Dave. I have to stop looking at these lowered Mustangs, I don't want to spend the money to lower the whole car.

3/4" out of center? I never would have thought it would be that much. I better start thinking about an adjustable panhard bar myself.

Just curious, how did you measure the centerline? Was it done on an alignment machine?

 

Looks good! Any camber issues?

 

A Mineral Grey lowered. SWEET! Did you put any camber plates on the car or did it spec out ok? Looks great~

 

Thanks for the comments! The front tires tilt inward at the top just enough to be noticable. I'll give it a bit to settle and have the front checked to see how far out it is. For the rear, I tied a heavy bolt to a piece of string and used that as a plumb-bob. I held the other end of the string at the apex of the wheel opening, then used a tape measure to determine the distance from the string to the wheel lip. Prior to adjusting the panhard bar, the driver's side measured 3/4", and the passenger side measured 1.5". So we split the difference, and a few turns of the adjusting mechanism and both sides were within 1/16" of one another. I just got back from taking a drive and the car is solid on the roads, even over bumps. Not harsh at all - it feels nice

 

Other than your avatar freaking me out I appreciate the information. What is the part number for the BMR panhard bar? Thx~

 

Yeah Frank is freaky The BMR part number is PHR006

 

Thanks~

 

Looks great....nicely done!!

 

Dave -" That looks Sweeeeeeeet!".
I really want to lower mine as well. Let us know on any camber issues.

Also I must say "Frank" is freaking me out as well. Giving me the heebee geebees.

 

Looks great. Looking forward to your evaluation of the ride/handling after the alignment.
