Installed Some Steeda stuff

Well i finally dropped my stang took advantage of steeda's black friday event and got 20% off everything. I installed Steeda sport springs, Steeda adjustable pan hard bar,Steeda Pro-Action shocks and struts, Steeda HD Mounts, and some Re-location brackets for my Billet LCA's. Havent posted in a while and ill get some more pics when i can but this was a quick one i snapped this morning. The initial drop on the springs on the rear was 1" on passenger side and 7/8" on drivers side. The front it was around 1/2" so far. I know they need to settle i just hope they do as advertised. As far as performance i feel like my car is glued to the ground ...ok not really but overall traction and significantly improved and so has cornering car does not spin half as long i feel like it just goes now. Big thumbs up for steeda i just hope it drops some more

Hello Burke,

Give it about 2 weeks to settle. That should give you the drop that you are desiring and that we had advertised.

If after 2 weeks you don't see an improvement in drop then please give us a call and well see what is taking place.

Glad to see you are happy with the parts so far and the car looks great.

Please don't hesitate to let me know if there is anything else I can do for you or if you have any further questions.

Please PM or email me at tim @ steeda.com

Best Regards,

TJ

Thanks,It stiffens the ride up and it seems that after a couple days it has loosened up a bit and is more stock like but you definitely know you lowered it. It handles 10x better and looks great compared to stock. I went and got an alignment this morning and it rode great on the way home. No bouncy feeling when hitting dips in the road or speed bumps . Overall i'm pleased with it and it seems like it will just get better over time. This is the first time i lowered any car so im new to this experience. But the car really is hooking alot better now on spirited runs

19" wheels with the new body style seem to make the sport look spot on perfect. My 06 needs a little more help. Especially with the 18's.

Dang... Can't see pics on my phone haha
