            Springs and LCA Relocation brackets at minimum.

            Your factory LCA's will be fine. If you just install springs, you will most likely run into a wheel hop issue.

            Aftermarket shocks are highly recommended.

                      yeah all you really need to lower your car are springs, ~$150. He added shocks ~$400, reloc brackets ~$80, and lower control arms ~$100

                        ...and poly ball bushings, poly end links, 32mm front hallow sway bar, 17mm rear sway bar and panhard rod. So yeah, there's a bit going on with the higher budget.

                          the stock shocks are the worst part of the whole suspension. and theyre not valved properly for lowering springs.

                          id say new shocks are a must, unless you want it to drive like crap.:slap:

                            Yes. One thing I can honestly say about the H&R 2" progressive springs and the AGX shocks combo, my car rides damn near the same as stock during normal driving conditions. The only time I notice anything is when I hit a really big bump (which is stiff, but not horrible) or I really get on it with some high speed maneuvering. Then the suspension locks in and shines like a champ.

                              It can't be close to the same.. My car bounces all over the damn place and every other F-body I've been in does the same. The body roll is insane.

                                sounds like its time for new shocks.
