Default SLP Eibach's?

I just picked up a set of these for my WS6. They supposedly lower the car Approx 1 inch. Will I need to purchase anything (adj Panhard, etc) to maintain a good ride and drag launch?

Not really. I have those springs and I hook awesome at the track on nittos. Ont he street is another story. LCA relocators might be the only thing I would recommend. They helped alot on my old lowered camaro.

4mulaJoe:
Your running these springs now with every thing else on the car being stock? What do you mean on the street is another story?
Are these springs offered as a option on SS's and Firehawks? and if so does SLP use any different suspension pieces when installing these?

Actually, I have a set of SLP Eibachs and Bilsteins waiting to go in and called them today. They said an adjustable panhard was not needed as the springs only lower the car about 1/2 of an inch.

I plan on doing relocation brackets when installing to make sure the springs don't hurt at the strip.

I have them on my car along with Bilstein HD shocks. You will not need an Adj. Panhard bar but you will need drop brackets (might as well get some LCA's while your at it).
