RE: Suspension Mods
ORIGINAL: Blue Oval
these springs im looking at only lower it 7/8" in the front and 1/2" in the back, will i need cc plates for that?
K-member brace: pretty cheap, under 100, so that thing just bolts on? should be like a half hour job then right? does it help a lot?
MM has a package, you get the strut tower brace, full length subframes, and a k member brace, for $344 shipped. im thinking i should go with that to start, what do you think

The MM kit is a good start, be sure that you pant the connectors

the subframes get welded, and the k member and strut tower brace gets bolted

1. full legth subframe connectors
2. lower control arms, spend the dough up front to get the good stuff the first time...i hate buying parts twice
3. springs, struts and shocks and camber caster plates, ALL AT THE SAME TIME, you will need camber caster plates for a lowered car and you will need to remove the struts anyways, so why pay for more than one alignment?
4. strut tower brace, K-Memeber brace
5. panard bar
6. torque arm

RE: Suspension Mods
yeah, I learned a lot from skimming around on MM's site. they actually tell you the spring rates of the springs they sell, too. It's hard to find that on a lot of sites. + you know it's good stuff...they designed it for their race cars.
