Let the suspension live once again!!

For the past couple of weeks, I've been busy tinkering (well, beating up, really) on dear old Liesel... The suspension upgrades have started!! Here's the complete list of what's planned (parts are already here):
  • Polyurethane bushings to replace rubber bushings all around (except swaybars at this point)
  • Ireland Engineering Stage 3 racing springs front and rear (2" drop front, 1.5" rear)
  • Bilstein Sport struts and shocks all around
  • New control arms in front
  • Treehouse Racing steel eyeball arms to replace lower control arm bushings
  • New strut bearings
  • Ireland Engineering -1.25° fixed camber plates
  • Ireland Engineering billet aluminum upper rear shock mounts
I'm already having a lot of fun tearing into the rear suspension, look for details and pictures to be posted very soon!
