the geometry of the suspension is very complex. The A-arms and steering tie-rods have a relationship so that the wheels are pointed forward. When you hit a bump the suspension moves and this relationship changes causing the wheels to steer in or out a little bit depending on how it is setup. I don't know specifics on the mustangs and what is included in the kit. This relationship can get thrown out whack by lowering your car so for a corner carver you would definately want to correct this but for a daily driver I think the main problems associated with lowering a car can be corrected with caster/camber plates.
