what would one do for upping the front /rear suspension


i have just rebuild the front end with rubber bushings and etc.(didnt want to go with poly because didnt see that much difference in rubber and didnt want the squeakage)

i have thought about a sway bar but really dont know advantages

basically i am looking for opinions of what some people have done or want to do

thanks guys

DO IT!

The improvement in handling is amazing with front & rear antiroll bars. (don't forget decent shocks, at least KYB's)


I'm using 1 1/8" front 3/4" rear addco's, and there's no understeer.

I don't have to slow down for corners and overtax my huge 9" drum brakes all around........ 8)
