Anyone every invest in the Eibach pro-kit? Anyone ever buy the energy suspension bushing kit? I am very interrested in both of them because I am about to redue my whole suspension. And if anyoen has used them before can you get a better price then the one in the GP Store??

On flat pavement they seemed to be nice and stiff and handle well,but on rough pavement or gravel roads "forgetaboutit".

I bought a set of slightly used from ebay for $140. Once I found out that with the camber kit and labor fees to have it all installed were running over $500, I sold them for $170... on ebay.

I had pro kits on my 3000GT and they made the ride real smooth, but it would bounce more over road imperfections. My brother has the same springs on his 5.0 and it is a completely different ride. His Mustang doesn't roll around turns or anything like that. It's probably because he has struts, roll bars, and other suspension componenets.

GMPP Handling upgrade? Yeah, it's awsome. Well worth the money.
