Absolutely BADASS!!!!!

I REALLY like the stance with the 2" shackle added onto the Roush leafs.

I would love to do this drop. Except everytime I pull into a parking spot or take it up on a vehicle lift, I see how close the front end gets to scraping and say "Nah".

How does it ride?

Thanks for all the compliments. The ride is surprisingly nice. On the harsh bumps they are a little stiff, but nothing like my Mustang used to be.

The shaker can be purchased from LFP, mine was on my 01 when I bought it and was transfered when I purchased the 04.

What did you do with the shims, keep them? Reverse them? Delete them?

The shims are still stuck to the stock springs. I was gonna check the angle when it is on the alignment rack cause I can't get under there now. LOL!!!

Ah ok. Please post what you end up doing with the shims when you do get your alignment. I know I am not the only one eager to hear the answer. Thanks!
