Ok so heres the scenario ..Im doing some mods and the plan was to have coilovers, control arm bushings and steering rack bushings all done in one shot ...Well i got 2 out of the 3 ..the coilovers and steering rack bushings and as most know the control arm bushings are on backorder till god knows when ...I know for a fact my bushings are in need of replacment ....Now i cant lie im getting antsy to get these mods on especially the coilovers ..Should i go ahead and lower it ? Will the problems get worse such as more vibration at 60mph and when braking if i lower it ? Thanks in advance

go ahead and install the coilovers. Just dont get an alignment. Get it after you throw in the control arm bushings. While you wait for the bushings, you'll be settling in the coilovers

I would wait and do it right all in one shot. I know how it is when you want it right now though...
