Hey guys, after a few pay cheques, all parts were aquired and now all installed thanks to my buddys shop at home lol.

So the parts i bought are:
- Eibach Sportlines
- KYB AGX all 4 corners
- SVT Rear Swaybar
- New Stab links all 4 corners
- and new Top hats to not take a chance and have all new


Install went very well, need the torchs a few times but other then that we were done in about 3 hours. ( NOTE: yes i should have painted a few parts in the back but i didnt have a paint can around so ill need to do it some other day )



And a picture of it on the ground


So drove around all day and im loving the setup, the front steuts are set to 4 ( firm ) and the rear is set to 8 ( firm ), basically the highest settings. Heres a few pictures of the car today



Tell me what you guys think!
Thanks

Nice - very nice. To my tastes the ride height is perfect and it sounds like it rides and handles great too. Good job.

Real nice!
Not too low either!

No im just about tucking, once the springs settle gonna be just a tad lower haha but it handles sooo good i love it, to the point that the wife wants to lower the 2011 the same way haha

looks good

Atta boi JM! She is coming along nicely.

Thanks guys! Like i told a few people, i have the handling that you would expect from a coilover suspension, but better drivability.

This is pretty much the exact setup that I'm running on my SVTF. Only dif is I opted for the steeda 28.6 mm sway bar w/ the hnr adjustable one up front. This setup is banging tho, have fun in those corners!

Well the only reason why i got the svt is because i got it for 40$ lol

Nice work! That's pretty much the ideal setup in height for a Focus in my mind.

Springs are the only draw back - to soft.

If they made higher rate springs in that height they would be money! Same set up I use to have but w/ big rear bar. I find my racelands to be similar

Your right Jamie, the only thing that i dont like is the fender rub on one corner ( the corner you always lean lol, driver side front ),but other then that i am not complaning haha

very nice stance you got there

Fender rub? I'm much lower and I don't rub at all. Strange.

Well i looked over were it rubs, and im sure the fender isnt in great condition, its been banged up before and the lip isnt straight, but when i say it rubs, i mean when i take a hard right turn haha. Or a big bump of dip in the road

Roll the fenders then? That would likely remove the issue.
