So for the end of winter/early spring i plan on finishing up my suspension. I already have MM full length subframes (welded in), KYB AGX 8 way adjustable gas shocks/struts, eibach pro kit. Here is what will be installing:

MM chrome plated caster cambers
Steeda aluminum non adjustable lower control arms
Steeda adjustable upper control arms
SMR torque box reinforcement kit

Only thing im waiting on is my Steeda strut tower brace.


Anything else you guys can think of that will help my suspension out besides some sticky tires??

now would it be necessary to get an adjustable rear sway bar or just a tubular heavy duty one?

Adjustable rear anti-ROLL bar's are for drag car's, wouldn't help handling, would help hook.

keep the stock uppers, loose the adjustable UCA's.. they'll bind and rip your control arm out. Seen it happen

the only upper control arm i'd run is the ford racing one, as they have the oval holes and they flex correctly. Most aftermarkets don't flex enough to make up for the design flaw in the rear end geometry, therefore causing bind and making you cry :santa_smiley:

im not ditching the uppers. I'm going to set the pinion angle and be happy with how my setup hooks. :santa_afro:
