Default New rear suspension install

Founders Performance lower control arms with 3 piece rotor bushings, adjustable panhard bar, greaseable poly swaybar bushings, poly end links and Moog IROC replacement springs. Anything else I need to buy before I start the install?

My first choice would be Sub Frame Connectors (SFC) and Shocks the rest is not going to help you.

After you install th welded in SFC's, you will feel the difference right away. SFC's should be the first mod made on any 3rd gen models.

1) Front struts & Rear shocks
2) Front & Rear sway bar bushings and end links

Now with the above and the SFC's you should have tight and good handling car.

Thanks for your reply. Is there a good brand in those things? I want to go for cost effectiveness because I have to have them shipped overseas...
