Might want to put in the upgraded strut bearings if you have the front end noise that is covered in the TSB.

Hopefully the weather will cooperate as I am sure these parts will really change the handling of your car!

If you don't have a noise then I would not mess with those bearings.

Since you have the pro-kit, I would probably get an adjustable pan-hard bar to get ther rearend centered up nicely. I have the Sportline Springs and I got the BMR adjustable pan-hard bar, and I have been happy with it.

Sounds like you have a good set-up with your suspension

dont get the Steeda Adj Pan bar, its very hard to adjust when in place. The BMR unit has the adjustments right out in the open for you. And the springs and shocks install is easy. Just takes some time and patience, it will pay off in the end!!

I would replace the strut bearings. Right after I installed my shocks and struts, the car began to make a clunking popping noise when going over bumps. The OEM strut bearings are often one time use.
