i bought a panhard bar for 200 bucks.. cant wait to put it on but it will sure be helping out alot... for 700 you could do a panhard bar and full length subframes, that would help out a TON... or if you want to. do a k member kit.. that will make you alittle quicker and also make that front handle better.

lower control arms are better to get than the uppers... they help wheel up. the uppers control side to side and rotation movement... when you get a panhard bar and torque arm you dont need to have upper control arms and can remove them.
good info man

how would this do coupled with some steeda sports or some ford c springs?

your rear wouldnt try to come around as much and you would be flatter in the turns. being a vert that i just noticed, weld in subframes help out alot too

Look into MM weighjackers too. They are adj lower control arms that you can lower and lift your car, if you were to ever go to track and throw big slicks on it

yea they do... each one is held on by 4 bolts. i took mine off and stood on one and it flexes alittle bit when its on a block of wood and the ground. lol. its very thin metal stock. the new ones will add alittle weight, but it will help with traction, corning, and you will feel the car better.

one thing i love about suspension is just about every part makes a difference and you can feel it.
