One issue some people have with the new 2015-2023 Mustang platform is the stance. One way to fix that issue is with a set of lowering springs. The Sportline set from Eibach will give your new Mustang a much more aggressive look as well as improve the handling. These high-quality springs will reduce squat during acceleration, limit nose-dive while braking, and reduce body roll on those hard corners. You will also see a reduction in fender-well clearance, making your Mustang look just as impressive as it performs when you install these versatile new Eibach Sportline Springs.
Installation is fairly straightforward and can be done in an afternoon in your driveway or garage. Once we installed this set on our EcoBoost, paired with a set of aftermarket Niche wheels, the look of our 2015 was a drastic improvement from stock. We saw an inch in the front and an inch and a quarter in the rear.
If you are looking to get rid of that annoying looking wheel gap as well as improve the handling of your 2015-2021 Mustang, than check out this great set of Sportline springs from Eibach.

HAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHah
hahaahah. TRUE
Lmfaoooo
Note to those watching this video: The front bump stops are installed incorrectly in this video. Have a look at the other CJ vids for the correct way of installing the front bump stops. Here they are shown upside down.
Do you think this is critical ? as I installed upside down
Damn you just just fucked over a guy for posting a video pretending you know what you’re doing
@@luissandoval1515 Lmao
Thanks man, caught this comment and after getting to this point in the install on my S550, you're absolutely right.
Lol yes, I took a peek at the instructions from Eibach and then saw this video and they’re upside down
I have these springs and installed then myself. Was my first time and my 2019 gt pp1 looks awesome. Got the rtr front chin spoiler and the 1inch billett to. Fyi...make sure you get an alignment. Steering wheel was off and shifted to the right. Took it to the dealership and got it aligned. Now its centered and the car drives badass.
Did you torque them down or just did what you think was right?
Dig your channel man, great clear videos..I'm a VW guy but liking the new mustang a lot, nice to see them modded here
My 18 rear sub frame doesn’t drop nearly enough to get the old one out. Had to remove the rear sway bar and loosen the rear bolts plus completely remove one other arm off the frame just to get it done. Might want to mention using thread locker on those caliper bolts too.
What you guys are doing with the video quality is great!
I can’t hammer off the screws any suggestions
I'm missing the eibach dust boot for the front springs, can i re use the stock? or should I contact eibach. Got mine used btw
RASSASSIN 7 lmk what u ended up doing
am i the only one that cant get the top hat seated correctly?
it looks good but doesnt spin freely feels like it gets hung up
The video is good until I realized you guys didn’t tighten the strut mount top nut twice, you were supposed to tighten after you release the springs. I did the same as in this video and now I have a noise coming from there and when I try to tighten the top nut it just spins. I guess I’ll have to take everything out again.
I have a performance pack the rear shocks are different i couldn’t get the stock bumpstoks off but they are bigger then the ones that came with the kit so i am going to leave it ... and thanks for not updating the video and letting people know you installed the front bump stocks wrong i already installed them the wrong way now i have to un do it
Hi Bill,
do you need adjustable control arms with these springs or can you adjust the camber on the mustang without them? How about the shocks, do they have enough travel left or are they bottoming? Are these working with the Ford Perfomance Street Handling Pack shocks? A lot of questions :)
Thanks Bill great install video, doing this tomorrow...
Hell yeah, that looks great!
I got 20 in. Wheels with 295/35/20 on the rear and 245/40/20 on the front. I could be mixing up the 35 and 40 series part. My point is, I'm afraid I won't have enough room to lower my car this much? Can anyone respond to this with reassurance it'll work or insight if you've already done something similar? Thanks!
I installed these and I hear bumping front the front driver side. Anyone know how to fix that?
Mine is in the rear
Hey bill I can't get the lower bolt off the front strut strut. I got one off. The other just won't get loose. Used an enormous breaker bar and it won't budge.
Cool my front bump stops are apparently in upsidedown. Thanks. 6hrs down the tubes.
I just installed these springs on my 16 mustang GT base model and after installing it there was a noise coming down from below and it makes the cabin noise really loud. Whenever I drive on the freeway and hit those little bumps it goes away for a sec and then when driving straight again it goes back. I checked the clearance of my tires and they were not rubbing at all. Are those noises normal when you install these to our mustang?
NO they should not make any noise. I would go back and make sure the strut nuts are tight along with the sway bar end links, they are the most common causes of noises post install.
Can't wait to get mine on this weekend!!
I just installed theses springs over the weekend
But my passenger rear knocks a little bit
Is that normal ? Or ?
Idk what it issue could be I took everything off and reinstall and yeah same issue
How do these compare to the performance pack springs
Just did mine on a convertible I had to drop the extra brace too
do the instructions include what you should torque the bolts and nuts too? it would be nice if you could casually throw those numbers in there during your install vids :) just a thought
how long would it take to install on a 2015 mustang v6. shops are telling me 7 hrs. that's crazy. I never heard that...is it cause its a new mustang? help please!
Like Bill says it should only take
2-3 hours
Did you ever take into account that
maybe the shop will be busy when you take it in for install?
Thanks bro I knew that for sure! Thought I was bugging!
Drea Gill Yeah man, no problem.
So when you getting them installed lol
Looks great!! 👍🏾👍🏾
Does anyone here have creaking and popping noise from front suspension? I torque everything but the popping noise over small bumps or at low speed is very frustrating.
Did you ever find a fix?
@@2510LV No, I showed it to couple mechanics too but no luck yet!
@Hilbert Hoppyclaps I got new set from Eibach as warranty but they had same issue too. All I do is cranking up the music. A lot of friends switched to Steeda brand instead.
@Hilbert Hoppyclaps yea same problem. The stiffness module on these springs are bad and when sits on housing, they make popping noise.
@Hilbert Hoppyclaps also makes noise over bumps. On highspeed your suspension travels less therefore you cant hear it and in low speed on bumpy road you will hear it more
If i have 1 inch spacers all around and use these springs, will the wheels make contact with the fenders?
Better install video than American muscle good job. Thanks for info subbed
Thank you! 😎
Great channel! Can you please add some FI install in the future for any 5.0 mustangs
Watching this video reminded me of how tedious it is to remove/replace the rear springs on the Mustang.
Do you have an exact drop rate? That looks like a pretty substantial decrease in ride height.
Do you recommend a bump steer kit after lowering the car that low?????
Hey Bill I have a 14 Gt and I'm running 305-35-20 in the back with a 50mm offset and have a slight bit of poke from the outside of the fender (maybe 5mm) I want to run a drop and was wondering if I run the BMR springs from CJ Pony with the 1.5 inch drop will I be in any danger of rubbing or wrinkling the fender?
I installed these same springs on my 15' GT and for some reason the right side sits 1/4" higher than the other side. The springs are correctly seated and installed. The only odd thing I noticed was the sub frame on the right side when tightening had a lot more resistance vs the drivers side. Is there something that I could have done wrong?
Loscar5oh Did you figure it out?
Marcus D no not yet unfortunately
My driver side had more resistance too. But my ride height is fine
hi bill, do you recommend these springs with the NITTO Extreme Performance NT05R Drag Radial - 315/35-20 ? are they going to fit ? or do you recommend the pro kit ?
what do think the highest tier size i can go with these ?
thanks .. Ali !
Do yall have many scraping problems with the sportlines? Im on 19s
If I install these springs MYSELF on my 2015 gt will it void the warranty?
I'm going to purchase these for my new GT, is the drop rate the same, lower, or higher?
Thanks Bill! I am doing this on a jack and jack stands. I will be supporting the IRS with a jack to lower it? I don't really know where to jack up on the IRS? It wasn't really explained in the video? Any tips?
Support the irs the same place I put the pole jack, under the spring on the subframe itself, not the control arm.
I can't seem to see the placement. Can u describe iy
hey how you doing bill how low is the car what's the inches on a car is it a 1.2 or a 1.5 or 2.0 inches
What’s the brand of the spring compressor you used?
What would you recomend for the camber, caster camber plates or just the bolts?
Hello bell
How many inches are those ??
Are those 1 3/4 fronts
And 2 1/4 rears !!??
How long would these last with the stock struts and shocks?
Did you need caster camber plates to get the front back in alignment?
Any reason as to why you installed the front bumpstops flat side down? or does it matter?
It was a mistake on my part, flat side up is the correct way.
Is it critical? I installed as per video
@@Zerogivengarage thanks for getting back to us!!
Is there a listing somewhere for the ft/lb settings for all these nuts?
www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=47084
Yash Patel Great link and thanks. I think I'm going to need a bigger torque wrench.. 🤔
Front spindle/hub nut: 251 ft/lbs.
when you said two fronts those are actually the rears the skinny ones go on the back, its weird
I just received my eibach Springs from you guys can't wait to install!!! I have the 20inch wheels on my Stallion
+JAYSWORLD_ TV what kinda hay do you feed it?
Hi Bill, I just has these installed by a shop on my 2016 mustang v6 yesterday. After installation and when driving home I can hear the clanking coming from the rear, and maybe some in the front too on the passenger side. At first I thought it was just my stock springs that I put in my trunk making the sound. But when I got home and emptied the trunk, theres still the clanking sound when going on small bumps. What do you think the problem would be? I called the shop who installed my springs and I was told to come back tomorrow and they will check the problem..
MrJhAam So did you figure out the problem ?
Marcus D Yeah, it was the strut's bolt that was loose. They just tightened it up then problem solved
MrJhAam I have this same problem. Any recommendations? I think i just need to tighten the center nut on the top of the strut
What are the torque specs? You really recommend using the stock stroud?
Where is everybody placing the floor jacks on the rear. Differential or elsewhere? Little nervous about damage to the diff.
I usually jack the car up by the diff and put stands on the subframe.
Hey Bill, I just went through the information they provide (which is extremely limited) from inside the box. Do you know where I can find the torque specs for the nuts that actually need to be torqued back to spec?
he just hit them with an impact 🤣
a few ugga duggas should do it.
I have bumping noise from my rear passenger area. Any suggestions?
Did you ever figure out what was wrong?
Anybody ever figure this out?
Great video I love these DIY vid there awesome
What do you mean it's not 50 states legal? What happened?
So much easier to do with last gens solid rear axle,
Yea, but the IRS handles so much better
One of the spline bolts on the strut assembly won't come out no matter how hard I hit it... What to do??
use a ball join remover or like a brake piston pusher
instead of lowering the subframe could you not disconnect the sway bar and lower control arm bolt at the outer end and drop the control arm to get the spring out?
Yes you can do it that way. Probably easier that way if you are doing this at your house with a jack and jack stands. Clock your bushings too!
i dont have my car yet but i already bought the springs and im intrested in those wheels aswel but they look like a tide fit dont u have any problem that the tire hit the boddy when driving
+Jeffrey Verhulst none at all
hey Bill, mine didn't come with the black padding that these on the video have. they also didn't come with the bump stop or the new dust boot. can I still install them with out these or should I wait.
I would contact ,
eibach first, if not
Then I'd cut the bumpstops and use the stock dustboot
Do you recommend an alignment after this installation?
JDMUSCLE P I heard people say, you have to drive them around to Let them settle first, and get an alignment after a week or so
How long do these take to settle?
Could you use the stock bump stops on these springs? Well, really is there a difference between the stock bumpstops and the eibach ones? I don't particularly have the eibach bump stops at this moment.
+GI Nicholas I would cut them down if you don't have the correct ones, you will hit the stock ones with the Sportlines.
Okay, thanks good to know!
@@Zerogivengarage how much should you cut it down? From the top or bottom?
What kind of tires did it have
Considering buying these springs.... How bad was the alignment out when you had it on the alignment machine?? figured lowering the subframe might cause some issues for re-aligning.
Gatorsrok It wasn't bad at all, lowering one side at a time keeps it pretty close to spec.
I Installed these about 2 month ago on my 16 mustang ecoboost 37k miles. My stock right front shock is leaking. Is it because of the lowering springs on stock shocks and struts?
Yeahppp
Yea man that bump stop is lol🤣backwards lol thats just funny to me man how you just kinda said oh whatever lol and just put it back together lol🤣i dont think it makes that much difference though.😅
Is it not dangerous to pull out the rear spring without compressing it? I'm confused why he didn't compress it.
When you lower the subframe the spring decompresses and pretty much falls out.
My daily drive on my mustang Gt with stock wheels is mostly on flat road until I get to work that I go over 3 speeds bumps would I have any issues with these sport line spring?
They will be fine with normal size speed bumps. Take them at an angle to be safe.
Please edit your video for the front bump stops. They are upside down. Save doing the job twice like me.
Other than that, very useful, thanks
So i put the bump stop in the way you showed do i need to take it all back apart?
I kinda need to know I’ve been driving on it awhile
What performance struts do you guys recommend ? I just recently bought a 18 GT performance pack and want to put sportline eibachs and wanted to know if i need to upgrade the struts as well?
As long as you do not have Magneride any of the 15-17 struts will fit the 2018 Mustang. I am a fan of the Konis with the sportlines.
I love the orange Mustang! Sexy!
... its red...
Do you have to drop the subframe or can you just compress the spring and pull it out like that?
Dropping the subframe is the easiest way to do it, there is very little room to get a compressor in there.
If I am using 25mm Eibach spacers front and back. Will these springs cause rubbing?
With stock wheels it will be ok.
Without the correct shocks and struts putting sport lines in a car makes it look good and makes it ride and handle terrible at high-speed
Do you have a link to those rims?
Do you have to replace the bump stops in the rear or can I leave the stock ones in?
I would suggest replacing them or cutting them down.
just got my springs looking to get wheels next and I wanna go 295 30 19 all the way around do you know if the front will rub?
that 1 guy from that 1 place front will not rub
If you had the performance pack would it be worth getting upgraded shocks and struts?
Where do I find all the torque settings to reassemble?
Did you ever find out ?
Are those 18s cause I'm about 20s and try to lower it down. Would hurt fenders
These are 20x10
Spring compressor gets in the way 😡
What size wheels did you have on the car for this video ? 20in ?
20x10 Niche Vicenza on all four corners.
Once I put on the new springs, do I need to get an alignment??
Ford.Car.Reviews We always suggest getting an alignment when changing ride height
Hi Bill,
Got my springs and looking to do the install over winter. You say we need to use a drill bit to open up the rear bump stop a bit more so it fits. What size of drill bit did you use? I dont want to use something too small or too big and then ruin the bump stop.
+Kereshen Naidoo its very hard to ruin, you want something large enough to just remove a little material.
Perfect thanks for the info!
I installed Ford handling pack M-FR3A-M8 in my car and I want lowering more if I install Eibath Sportline. Do I need to change the camber plate or no?
Idk what happened but at 3:51 when I tried to hammer them out they wouldn’t even move or budge I tried lifting the whole thing with a jack to take pressure off and nothing worked even wd40
Just did them 30 mins ago .. those bolts were a bitch to get out bro
i had to guy buy a 4lb sledge and it worked like a charm
What did you guys use to correct the front camber?
The car was aligned without issue but there will be camber bolts and CC plates available soon
The rear of the car looks to sag lower than the front. I think it needs more of a rake...
hey Bill, What size are those wheels both front and rear?
20x10 square
bill I am having a difficult time hammering the two bolts after removing the rotar any advice this isn't as easy as your video completely stuck please respond ASAP need this done by tomorrow?????
+JAYSWORLD_ TV Some cars they come out easily, others you really have to hit to get them to budge. Unfortunately there is no trick to this.
+Bill Tumas thanks Bill for the reply and yes your right def. took a while but got them out
+Bill Tumas thanks Bill for the reply and yes your right def. took a while but got them out
+Bill Tumas thanks Bill for the reply and yes your right def. took a while but got them out
why does it say on American muscle that this is only for the GT?
+Jeffrey Ontiveros Because they are wrong? The drop is not quite as low but they obviously work since that is an EB in the video.
I just did this instal on my 15 gt pp and the stock bump stop wouldn't come off because the top of the shock where you unscrew that nut has a lip making it impossible to get the bump stop off. Is it ok to leave the stock bump stop on?
Dylan Larson did you have any problems after u did that ? Cause same happen to me
luis Velazquez no problems yet. From reading online people were saying the only thing that could potentially go wrong is that you can bottom out on the bumpstop. Which idk how that's possible but even if it is I'd rather bottom out on that bump stop then the end of the strut. Drive about 500 miles and haven't had anything like that or anything else happen.
Dylan Larson alright cool thanks ! I been driving mine for the last 2 days as well and no problems
Dylan Larson If you put a little pressure the old and new bump stops they will pass over that lip no problem.
Any rubbing issues in the rear? I have 20' wheels on my 2015 GT. I'm debating on the pro or the sport line springs.
We run 20x10s all around on this car without issue.
Ok sounds good. Sportlines it is then. Thanks for the prompt reply.
What about with the 20x10.5 with 305s...did you run with this set up?
that front spring that is on the table is not the one that is installed on the strut.....????????
+Tom Funk I am not sure what you are asking? the spring I showed is the one I installed.
+Bill Tumas Have you installed the kit for the GT?
+Tom Funk not on video but we have installed sportlines on GTs
would 305's fit in the back with these springs? 305 35 20R, 2016 Mustang GT.
Thanks,
Depends on your wheels. We had 305s on this car and it was a very tight fit.
Bill Tumas what were the size and offsets on those rims?
2-3 hours???? A shop told me it would take them all day 3 hours for the fronts and 4 hours for the rear
ben I would suggest finding a better shop, even dealers around here quote 4 hours for the entire job. It’s a 2 hour job if you have done it before.
