Re-doing Suspension

Posted By: crunkmaro On: 03-20-2010 @ 17:37:38         Reply | Edit
Okay guys, if you saw my video i posted...you can tell that my suspension is shot.

now what i needs to know is how can i replace it with a more effective system?

I am looking for: better daily driving capabilities so better cornering and better grip through on-ramps off-ramps etc.

lowered or not lowered it doesn't matter

any ideas?

Lower slightly, and replace the shock with re valved bilstines. Then get larger front and rear sway bars with poly links and bushings. Really good SFC's (weld in only), LCA relo's (weld in only) and a STB will finish off the combo. It will handle like a dream.

They probably offer a spring, but I've never seen it.
