What do you think of this set-up?

I am looking to buy a total suspension upgrade and want to know what you think. If you have any other ideas or opinions, please post.

Suspension upgrade:
  • Eibach Pro-Kit springs
  • Spohn LCAs and relocating kit
  • Spohn torque arm
  • Hotchkis SFCs
  • Edelbrock shocks and struts
  • Edelbrock 3-point STB
  • and P.S.T. polygraphite front end bushing kit

i was just reading about the spohn torque arm, and its a 100% boltin installation, but i was worried about them talking about moving the mounting arear off the tranny somewhere else, but thats a good thing, so you can go with the spohn arm then, good quality product.

If you decide to go with those SFC I recommend having them welded in rather then bolted. Or better yet go with a weld in design, one that is built a little better like one of Spohn's units or Kenny Brown.

Personaly I would go with a beefier unit Like Kenny Brown, the only problem is they are a little pricey. The other option would be Spohn but since he's taking his time getting them out to us, the only option for me would be Kenny Brown. My third choice would be Global West but they don't tie into the tranny mount like the other 2
