Suspension Questions

So I've been researching for the past few months on which handling pack I want on my car. I have got some conflicting info from the various threads and google searches so I'm trying to get my facts straight. I came from trucks so lowering was simple longer shackles and shims and your good to go. So I've read that pinion angle becomes an issue when dropped more than 1". Im looking for the 1-1.5" drop range and it is a daily driver so mild is the name of the game here as well as reliability. Im looking at the BMR handling pack linked

Here:http://www.bmrsuspension.com/?page=p...201&superpro=0

It has most of the things I'm looking for minus adjustable upper control arm to adjust pinion angle. Also going to add new shocks and struts at the same time. I dont mind buying that extra but wanted to get opinions on what I need now to get it aligned and reliable and what can wait a little longer. Any info is appreciated. Also any recommendations on other brands is welcome. Ive looked at this kit as well as pretty much all the ones on AM.

Thanks,
Chris

If you have the stock drive shaft, pinion angle is not so important. It's when you get into a 1-piece unit that pinion angle becomes critical.
