The ss shocks/struts should be better with lowering springs, I have a full set waiting to go on in a couple weeks.
Also be aware, depending on driving conditions, the weak factory style control arm bushings won't last as long, I got 2 weeks out of a set before they started to tear due to the increased angle.

You will need two of them - one for each control arm - and why not deal with one of our vendors?
