Car feels kind of loose

Hey I just bought an 89 not too long ago. It drives fairly well for a 15 yr. old car, but I wish it felt a little more tight. The car is dropped with Eibach sportlines I believe. (prev. owner did it) It rides horrible. Does this sound like symptoms of worn shocks and struts? Can I replace struts in the driveway? I drive a regular cab ranger as a daily driver so I know what a rough ride is, but my stang rides worse. Also, the steering feels a little loose. I feel safe in the car, it may just be an effect of the worn out suspension. Also, on the Fox chassis, do subframe connectors and shock tower braces make a difference? I am in early stages of redoing my car and money is coming in but its just hard for me to save up while going to college.

My plan is: rebuild motor (in progress), rims and tires (if you saw how ugly they were you know why its a high priority), and paint. Then I want to work on suspension and interior.

Thanks for the help,
Joey

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking of doing that too. I really want to get the motor right first as my main concern and then work my way through all of it. I think you are definitley right about going through and tightening it up though.

Thanks again,
Joey
