Not if you do it properly, most people forget to do the complete suspension mod , instead of just lowering , you must support the lowering with either new sway bars front/back.

Best bang for the buck is to go with Pfadt coil overs

Bushings....

A question for you guys - instead of cutting the front bushings, can we go with Poly bushings (with lesser height). If so, part #, or a link would be helpful. (Not trying to hijack, but a related question)

Thanks...

I scrap everywhere but it is just the front rubber so it does not matter
and you dont need to cut it it wear itself on the road.

Went with the T1 spring sawy bar and bilstein sport.
front is 25 1/2" and rear is 27"
