Suspension Change Questions
 
I finally sorted out all my suspension issues and enjoyed it over last summer and fall. My question is there anything you guys would recommend changing to make it a more balanced car. It is my DD and see's some spirtited driving on the weekends. I'm looking for something that might bring a bit more balance/response to the car. The rear of the car still feels a bit jumpy on uneven or transition roads and the front still seems to push to much. I do understand that the car is built with some understeer, but if possible I would like to try and eliminate a bit of it. I have adjusted and continue to adjust my driving style to suite what I have on the car but would like to bring a bit more to my street car. I'm not against changing any of the items I currently have.

My current suspension includes: racecraft springs, koni "yellows", 35MM front sway bar, 22MM rear bar, stock ford sway bar links and strut mounts and 18 inch wheels.

I appreciate any thoughts and comments.

That's too big of a front bar IMO. What bars do you have?

I'd say bigger rear bar, and adjustable panhard bar upgrade...should get rid of some of the jumpiness in the rear and the rear sway bar should help dial out some of the understeer.

I have the racecraft front bar and eibach rear bar.

I would either get the Eibach front bar or put the stock one back on.

Would you not want a adjustable front and rear sway bars to better tune your suspension? I would Email stranoparts .com see what they have to say!

I just got some stuff from Sam and when I'm ready to pull the trigger on the bars, I'll go with the Strano F&R adjustable sways.
