Heres what I did yesterday on my day Off.

[Bosko5.0]

I Put on some new front suspension components consisting of:

03-04 cobra control arms
Steeda 4 bolt caster/camber plates
New hubs both sides
Steeda bumpsteer kit
Mach 1 tokicos(black)
I started around 3pm and finished at 2:45am.
I did almost all of it by myself, with some help from my dad and brother.
Iam taking it to get aligned tommorrow morning since the steering wheel is tilted.

What do you think I should have them set it to?

Heres some pics

I got it aligined yesterday morning. The steering wheel is straight and it rides smoother but you can feel the road due to the caster/camber plate bushings, but I will get use to it in time. I also found that my pass. balljoint was busted ( drivers side was almost there) which created my clanking over bumps.
I haven't taken many corners yet so.......


Also what is the least amount I tread I should have on tires???

What does the swap to the 03 arms do?

What does the swap to the 03 arms do?

The have improved bushings and ball joints, and a scallop (depicted above) to allow a tighter steering radius.

Also on the hubs they have a real abs ring instead of that stamped one.

Did you have problems with the Tokico hp's or just worn out? I am getting ready to install some with my Eibach prokit.

I had wondered that too.

I run the combo you are going to install (HP's and Prokit). I dont have the refined tastes that some folks do but I like the combo pretty well. It's pretty stiff.

I thought one of them went bad but it turns out that it might have been the balloint that went out.

The mach 1 are a bit softer too. And Since they are ripping up the old roads and putting in six lanes there are alot of bumps and where the asphalt starts and stops, I could use all the softness I can get.
