Default Finished up the suspension mods...

Installed new Bilstien Sports, Poly swaybar bushings, and GM HD aluminum endlinks. Here's the other threads I made to show some of the work..

First day's fun

A little more progress

Mark (Almostfastlt1) came over tonight to lend a hand getting the front shocks in. After it was all down we took her for a spin. The car feels more responsive, has a bit less body roll (didn't have much of any to begin with), and the newfound rebound control is amazing. The car just hunkers down over bumps.

The biggest plus for me was the fact that there are zero squeeks, clicks, or rattles at all comming from the endlinks and the new bushings... seems everything went in correctly!

Cya,
Brian

They're not poly endlinks... they're poly swaybar bushings and GM HD aluminum endlinks. But yeah... it's nice that they make no noise.
