  • Another suspension question.

    I'm lowering my car. A guy named TandA on this board has a pic of his car in his sig



    And he's using the Eibach pro kit, so that's probably what I'll get.

    I know I need the adjustable panhard rod for these.

    Do I need an adjustable torque arm? Do I need Control arm relocation brackets?

    Yes, if you want to hook instead of spin.

        Aren't you considering exhaust mods like headers and y-pipe?

        May want to re-consider this if you are...

          Lowering and long tubes seldom mix. Good point.

            I was going to go with mid length headers.

              Also... Do I need the adjustable control arms, or will the Non adj. arms work just as well for a lowered car?

                Non adjustable will work just fine, unless you need to alter the thrust angle.... then you'll need adjustable.
