The various horrible things people do to raised or lowered cars aren't really worth worrying about, amateurs (in a broad sense) do what amateurs do
Jeeez
I know I'm an amateur by some, perhaps your standards, but let me pose a real life problem to you.
I have lowered my 2004 Mustang Cobra with IRS on Eibach springs and bars as a kit.
Now Eibach is internationally renowned suspension people that claim to have designed it just for this car.
Now when it was dropped it of course developed a case of bumpsteer mid corner, but the well respected SCCA champions at Steeda provide a bumpsteer "kit" that takes care of that to a tee.
NO more bumpsteer, much improvement in cornering.
Now especially with the new Koni adjustable shocks I felt I had to go to the softest compression and rebound setting to achieve more compliance. To me it is too still (springs? Bars?) too stiff and feels like a go kart. To which my my friends who are even more amateurish and stupid than I, say, well isn't that what you want?
I think you'll agree it is not.
However when you spend money on long distance calls to experts and this is what they say to do, what is a naΓ―ve amateur like myself to do.
It seem very much like the Guldstrand set up I put under my 67 Vette and that worked great but was also too stiff in my opinion.
SO if you have answers that will work you be sure to let me know, but be assured you're saying out front that you know more than Eibach or Steeda.
To achieve anything, you must be prepared to dabble on the boundary of disaster.β
