Hello All,

I still have the original stock springs & shocks on the car (80K miles). Last year I added the KB blower and this year I plan to spend some money on the suspension. The only mod so far related at all to the suspension was welding in the Kenny Brown super sub frame connectors to help stiffen the chassis.

The car is driven regularly in nice weather and is definitely primarily a street car. I want to take it to the drags and autocross a few times this year (it will be the 1st time for both). I have done some research and think I have decided on going with recommendations from Maximum Motorsports. I am very interested in input from other people.

Please let me know if you think I am missing something or if you would suggest something different.

Bilstein HD Sport Shocks/Struts
H&R Super Sport Springs (205-250# Back, 600-720# Front)

MM Caster Camber Plates
MM Panhard Bar
MM Adjustable Lower Control Arms
Ford Upper Control Arms

MM Strut Tower Brace
MM K-Member Brace
New Ford A-arm Assemblies
MM Steering Rack Bushings



I appreciate any help you can offer.

Thanks!

- Dan

Hey, looks good. My only though is you could save almost $100 by switching to the Tokico Illumina's instead of the Bilstiens, which you may find some advantages with. They aren't as good as the Bil's, but pretty darn close and since you want to do both drag and AutoX, the adjustability may work out better for you anyway. Otherwise, you should be pretty happy. Have you talked to them yet? That list looks a lot like one of thier Box kits, and you may be able to save some money and do a little better even by having them tailor an existing package to your needs. Good luck
