Suspension Components

[RideThePony2004]

So i've been hearing a lot of squeaks when turning lately. I want to do my suspension when I get enough money. Can you guys help me make a list of everything (dampers, springs etc.) I need to make it handle kinda like its on tracks? I also want to get rid of that fender gap, so that it sits lower and my wheels look bigger Thank you

no u change the stock shocks too. You will blow out the sotck ones within the first few major pothole you hit with the lowering springs on.

 

[Chris2kGT]

The stockers can work with any spring up to a 1.5" drop. Anything beyond that and you will need to upgrade. If you go with aftermarkets on a dropped car buy Fox sized struts as they are shorter and wont bottom out.

whats bottoming out? lol...hitting the top of the shock when it goes up and down?

bottoming out is when the bottom of the car's frame hits the floor

[RideThePony2004]

u have an air ride?

 

[RideThePony2004]

heres my list...

Strut Tower Brace

H&R Super Sport Springs

Maximum Motorsport Caster/Camber Plates

Full Length Subframe Connectors (weld in or bolt in?)

Steeda Bumpsteer Kit

BBK Polyutherane Spring Isolators Front and Rear

Shocks and Struts...what brands would you guys recommmend that are long lasting but good also?

Control Arms? What benefits would i get from them? And do i really need them?

 

[Chris2kGT]

Control arms keep the rear centered and prevent wheel hop. I would only put them behind subframe connectors in order of importance on your list.

Also once those are installed you can remove the quad shocks(the mini ones by the rear wheel) and lose a little weight off the car.
