Lowering Spring Quest?
On the Ford lowering spring M5300L it says:
NOTE: Some factory fasteners are one time use. Please reference a Ford service manual for reuse information and correct torque specifications. Do I need anything else before I take this to my regular mechanic which this is an easy swap but I have no idea with this car that I need or should be aware of anything else. Or should I just go to a Ford dealer to get ripped, as long as they know what they are doing.

Re: Lowering Spring Quest?
The rear is not problem, that is easy. Here is an article from Mustang Monthly on how to install caster/camber plates but it is very simular to the front spring swap. On page two, they get into detail on the torque settings.

Do you have a link showing what comes in the kit? The rear springs require no additional parts and I you can reuse all the front hardware from the stock struts. I have done a few of these installs and had no issues reusing the stock bolts.

Re: Lowering Spring Quest?
I just received the lowering spring this week. Before I install the springs, I Plan on getting a BMR panhard bar and brace to center the axle and perhaps a set of camber bolts to align the front end.
