WS6 break down?

What makes the WS6 suspension any different or better than regular? When you replace things for the suspension the parts place never asks if you have performance suspension. What gives? I would like to know what make the WS6 a WS6.

An 89 WS6 would have 36mm front/24mm rear sway bars, plus stiffer springs. Keep in mind, Level II has the same springs as Level III (WS6), but has 34mm/23mm sway bars. Also WS6s came with 16" wheels.

Depending on what parts you were replacing it doesn't matter. I would NEVER buy Autozone springs or shocks. Things like linkages or bushings doesn't really matter.
