NM Engineering Lowering Springs questions.

I've decided on getting some lowering springs for my 2009 MCS this December and have been leaning towards the NM springs. I was just curious what people's opinions were on these particular springs and whether or not I would need to install rear control arms/camber links as well.

You wont need rear control arms unless you are really concerned about dialing in your rear camber.

I have those springs along with a Hotchkis 25mm rear sway bar. I got the lower control arms as well. It sits about an inch and a half shorter. With all of that along with new stock shocks, it handles beautifully and is even more fun to drive. I can get pics of it later on here if you'd like.
