Default Springs and .....

So I read the sticky above, some good info there, answered a lot of questions.


My only one left is, do I need to purchase anything else for my vehicle to go along with the springs?

Its a daily driver, so the lowering will only be 1 - 1.5, etc etc.

Struts/shocks and caster-camber plates. You can get away from not using the caster-camber plates but your alignment won't be perfect until you get them.

Those are the springs i will be going with. I'm also going to get Tokico Illumin shocks/struts, maximum motorports caster/camber plates, steeda bump steer kit, and steeda ball joints.

Youll be able to run those springs with NOTHING else. You can use the stock c/c plates and stock shocks/ struts for awile. Dont get the ball joints and other stuff unless you need it. Who ever does your alignment will tell you.
