We need a hell of a lot more information then that. What are you looking at doing with the car, how much are you willing to spend, whats already done to it, what year/ model, etc., etc.

The FRPP Handling Pack is a steal at $500 shipped which includes springs, sway bars, shocks, and struts. I have this which replaced my Eibachs (1.5" drop) and man, are the turns less scary. The whole package lowers the car 3/4-1".

hey bassman, i have an 03 v6 and i'm thinking about getting that kit. i'd imagine the drop on the rear would be the same but on the front since i don't have the weight of the v8, do you think it would even drop it any? and does it come with the necessary hardware for me to install the rear swaybar? (since i didn't have one from the factory)

To even the drop for the front, either leave the stock isolators up front and put poly isolators out back or just remove the front isolators. As for the hardware for the sware bar, sorry, you're out of luck their but your local Ford dealer can order it (or you can go to your local hardware store and buy the right grade (which I'm not sure on the grade but someone will chime in)).

If your looking for a deal, grab a set of Mach 1 or Bullitt take off shocks and struts. Grab an Eibach Pro Kit, and your looking at around around 550.

$600? I paid $500, including shipping. buyfordracing.com has them for $425 but you have to be patient since that thing sells quick.
