Simply put the best bang for the buck when tightening up a P-car suspension is getting rid of the flexy rubber bits first... Period dot the end.


The biggest ones are on the lower control arm (LCA) so the inner LCA bushing and central bushing need to go immediately! After that I really think the stock camber plates need to go too along with the Dog bones.


I think most of the dog bones made by after market companies are a pain in the butt to get the alignment I want easily with the exception of Champion Motorsports dog bones due to the way they lock down the adjustment. most manufacturers use a lock down bolt that causes stretch in the dog bone that is problematic. This gets frustrating to get exact numbers which in turn causes most alignment guys to settle for a thats close enough spec which is something I will not do but I will certainly charge a customer for my time!


Now lastly I will recommend a rear toe link change to complete the package. If you are spending thousands of dollars to increase tire wear and you are running non performance tires then I will shake my head and tell you to buy Toyota Corolla to commute in as these are performance mods.


So while we are on the topic of performance you might as well do some drop links on you sway bars so you can do a corner balance too.

To compliment the new LCAs, I should prob ditch the stock struts...what is the next level for them? Not sure I want to dump coil over money yet.
