Ok, I want to lower my 92 Eagle talon on these Coil-Overs. I want to go 3" inches What Shocks & Struts Should I use? I don't want to spend no more then 350.00 for a set. What esle will i need to Buy/Do to lowering my car this much? Thanks for the help guys! :)
 
I have never heard anyone using coil-overs that cost less then ground control ($360 and up) and liking them at all. Most change them out after a few months and some border on unsafe. Stay away from any ebay/dropzone/matrix coliovers.

If you just want to lower your car cheaply w/out the added benifet of handling, lowering springs wouold be your answer. eibach/h&R/tein springs seem to all be decent ways to lower. 3 inches is way too much though, i dont know of a shock tht can handle that w/out be shortened and revalving.

Most of the "low" lowering springs like the sportlines drop about 2 inches tops. Your stock shocks will not last and you need to upgrade your shocks too. Also, camber kits are needed for large drops like this. $360 dollars and them some would probaly be gone quite fast.

look at old suspension threads about people who brought cheap crap the first time and ended up spending more to fix the problem.

I Like the look of this talon, How low do you think it is? I guess i will go with springs instead of coil overs. So what springs,shocks,struts ect. would you recommend to get the look of the talon above?
 
Everything about that car is perfect except it could really use some plastic polish on those yellow headlights...
 
I was getting ready to drop $1000.00 on my stereo, but now i think i will take that money and the money i was gonna spend on my suspension and buy a complete air suspension setup :D
