Eibach Sportline Owners: Come On In....

  • Sponsors (?)


I only have the springs and isolators, everything else is stock. I had it without the isolators first, but it made a clunking noise when going over bumps. Only made the noise in the rear though. Isolators will keep the noise down and also keep the spring from spinning to the wrong position. As far as pigtail location, if I remember correctly in the Eibach instructions, it doesn't matter in the front, but in the rear, the end of the bottom coil is supposed to face towards the drivers side. This is for both of the springs in the back. If I am wrong someone else please correct me.

Here's a pic of mine with eibach sportlines. It's actually lower than it looks in this picture, I think it's just the angle I shot it at doesn't show the stance of it very well. Mine settled quite a bit in the days-week. The sportlines will continue to drop a little over time. Mine has settled even further since I put them in a few years back. I will try to get a better shot tommorow. I don't have the isolators in the front of mine either. It actually looks just like VDunn's when you look at it like the angle of his pic.

How is does the car ride with out the Isolator. Does it my noise any metal to metal creeck or grind. The reson I ask is I am puting a steeda ball joint on my 03 since the a arm is off am thinking of taking the isolator off just to bring the front a little bit more but I don't want the noise.

It doesn't make any noise at all. I never had a single squeek out of mine and they "were" like that for atleast two years. I say were because I just got rid of the stang for a 2005 F150 4x4 SuperCrew.

mine sits at about the same ride height as the red one, and it does kinda seem like the rear has come down just a smidge, but i cant seem to get the damn thing aligned. it had an alignment when i first swapped the springs, but i guess it didnt hold up, or wasnt done correctly. how much do cc plates help in the alignment process?

In my opinion, stock cars need C/C plates. Here at Hunter Engineering we specialize in undercar maintenence machines(aligners, balancers, tire changers, lifte, etc.). My mustang along w/ every one that I have worked w/ the camber in almost never the same. My Mustang the camber was a degree off w/ the stock strut mounts. The C/C plates could have been used before I lowered my car.
