Any time you do suspension work(especially height adjustment) you should get the car aligned.

 

I was planning on getting it aligned, but I'm unsure if I need a camber kit for this small of a drop. guess i'll find out when I get it on there

 

I really wouldn't imagine that with the small of a drop that it couldn't be adjusted to be within spec. But that's the thing that sucks about lowering, is wondering if you need a camber kit. You can't tell for sure if you need one till you align it, then you'll have to realign it if you do need and install a kit. I know no one likes wasting money. h:

 

To be safe I would get one for the front at the very least.

 

well, I'm gonna take my chances. Most of what I've read says I wouldn't need one for a drop of less than one inch. I was supposed to have everything on there today, but UPS is taking their sweet time with my shocks and they won't be here until tomorrow. Guess that means I won't have them on my car til i have some free time next week. I'll let you guys know what comes of it

 

i don't know if anyone cares, but i do have an update. This combination of shocks and springs is fantastic. I did the install with the help of a write-up on this forum and it went very well except for two problems. The first was a seized bolt that i broke the head off of. $200 later, i had a new control arm installed.

the second kinda sucks. I am hearing a rubbing/squeeking that sounds like its coming from the driver's side front. it coincides with the extension/compression of the suspension. sometimes its worse than others and it may or may not be worse when it's cold out. any ideas?

edit: the squeaking sounds more like a rubber squeak as opposed to a high pitched metal squeak
