Update from Eibach: "They need a car to test fit."

I just got off the phone with Eibach. They asked if I would make a post to see if anyone in the Southern California area would be interested in having a set of the new Eibach springs installed on their car to test for fit prior to production. They don't have a car.

They said to just give them a call if you are interested. I'd be down, but I'm just a few miles away. ;)

Spooky. The engineering and validation should be done before you list something for sale. Or is this for a spring other than what they currently advertise?

Ill do it.

Considering that the spring geometry (seat interface, overall diameter) is not different to the normal Mustang outside of the right rear springs being would in the opposite direction, it should be fairly easy for them. The big question is what are the rates?

My guess is they engineer the spring on CAD and then test in the real world.

But they've been advertising this spring for sale for some time now. I suppose this means they have yet to sell a set.

did they test their damn sway bars?

I don't think they been able to test anything. They don't have a car to test it on.

Saw this on FBook ...

.7 front/.9 rear

Saw this on that Facebook post, the lady says she put their sway bars on as well and it should all be available for purchase in about 2 months.

I'm still leaning towards the FP springs and R sway bars. Unless there is strong evidence that for whatever reason the Eibach Sway bars outperform.

The drop looks great!

Who else tilted their head to get a better perspective?
