Question LT's and Lowering?

I'm putting LT's on my '03 GT and i also want to install either eibach or steeda springs in the near future. Is it possible to lower the car any with these springs and have LT's installed? I'm installing the LT's reguardless, but i would also like to have a stiffer suspension. Can it be done?

Probably not the same, but I ran Longs on my fox, with a 2" drop.

Re: LT's and Lowering?

make sure you get a performance clutch installed before you do the LTs.

??? WTF?????

Dude, your stock clutch will be fine, wait until it goes out due to mileage then slap in a SPEC stage 1 for N/A, Stage 2 if you have forced induction. Use your money more wisely.

The only stock clutches I've seen blow w/bolt ons were a result of missed gears.

Re: LT's and Lowering?

I think i'm going to get the Eibach Sportline Springs, they will provide a quite stiffer suspension as well as lower the car about 2". At since the eibach springs are so stiff, will i need to replace the factory struts or any other suspension parts so the springs do not mess anything up?

Re: LT's and Lowering?

Offset rack bushings, better shocks/struts, caster/camber plates.

The Sportline kit will put it really low for street driving, and beat the crap out of you in the process...but to each his own.
