Default Need Help with Suspension Install

Parts I have are Ford Racing P Springs, J&M Panhard Bar and Eibach Camber Bolts. I can't do this at my apt so I'll have to meet up. I will also have a GTCS front fascia and upper grill. I'll supply as much beer as needed. Only part I don't physically have on me is the upper grill, which I should have by the weekend of the 21st. Let me know if anyone is available to get their hands dirty.

-Alex

If I can't get it done the weekend of the 20th-22nd, I'll have to schedule in October. My mom's Bday is the 30th so I will be out of town more than likely that weekend.

I've never done this, so I am looking to people that have. You don't want me bumbling around with your suspension parts lol. I'm always happy to turn a wrench though.

It looks pretty straight forward. I did springs and a flip kit with a c notch on a my old truck. So this shouldn't be bad.

Your install will go simply I do all my own install except lowering springs since I dont have tool. But if you have the spring tool. Few hours and your car will be sitting good

Update.

Now have the upper front grill. So now I just need some help with the install. As stated previously, all the beer is on me to whoever is available. Bacadiesel, if you are still able to lend your shop and lift it would be much appreciated. I leave work at 4pm during the week, so if that is better let me know. Weekends are open.

Is it suggested to get new camber bolts/camber plates when lowering the stang? I was looking at the bolts you listed, and these do sound like a necessary addition. I am also looking at doing a suspension install Dom, maybe I could join? I still need to order my P Springs, and depending on the responses, may get some camber bolts as well.
