2 inch roush drop springs- $65 shipped from hillbank motor co. (had to cut 3-4 inchs off to level cause they are for the 2.3 lima)
DJM 3 inch flip kit- $120 Harry's hot rod shop.
Roush front and rear sway bars- $120-$120 shipped from hillbank motor co.

I have around $250-$260 in the drop. VERY HAPPY.

Nice.
I have wanted those wheels for a long time, but i think they are too close to the 99/01 cobras i have right now (the untrained eye will probably think they are the same, lol).
So now i want something to show off i'm brakes

You don't need them.
They greatly compliment the increase in handling you get from the lowered suspension.

My truck handles great with the 4/5 and upgraded front and BII rear sway bars.
