Well today we changed out the front suspension on my car and man it made such a huge difference. My Passenger lower a-arm bushing had the metal shell cracked, it was in some bad shape. The car handles so nice now its just crazy.

Car sits up a bit higher then i want so far but i hope it will settle over the next month or so. Unfortunatly we didn't get the alignment to good and since its a holiday weekend i have to wait until tuesday to get my car into the alignment shop so it will sit till then.

I totally recommend edelbrock shocks, the car just takes bumps so nice.

BTW we did new upper/lower control arm poly bushings, balljoints, hotchkis 1901F front springs, edelbrock shocks, tie rod ends, adjustable sleeves, and a new centerlink.

Amazingly it wasn't to difficult i think the rear needed a lot more muscle than the front, but things just WENT together which does not normally happen with cars.

I was looking in to buying the edelbrock shocks also. It's nice to know that other's give good reviews on them. The shocks are a little pricey.

I was never going to buy them since they were so much, but my friend put them on the front of this 72 camaro and the difference was just insane. So right then and there i decided i would drop the money on these shocks seeing how much of a difference it made on his car.
