lowering springs installation

[JORAMA57]

I have a set of eibach lowering springs for my 88 GT and I was wondering if any one has some guidance on how to go about installing them.

Thanks in advance

Front, rear, or both?

Aerodonamic has done them before.  He installed them for a previous owner of one of my cars.  The man removed them after a short while.  Didn't like them. 

You do have to cut the bump stops on front in the same amount as you lower, else you'll bottom out.  It also changes the alignment geometry.  By far the best way is to use lowering ball joints on front and rear, nothing has to be modified and steering and alignment geometry remains the same. 

Either way, you could have clearance problems with larger aftermarket wheels.

You can get lowering ball joints for the front from Rodney Dickman. I don't know of any for the rear, and, of course, the 88 doesn't have rear ball joints anyway. Probably the best option for the rear is adjustable coil overs, which you can get from AMS. They also have another option for the front -- drop spindles (but they're way more expensive than lowering ball joints).
