New to aftermarket suspension.

My car handles like crap. I know very little about upgrading suspension cept struts and springs, uh....yea. Can someone tell me in a list every single part that can be upgraded on the front end and rear end. I know everything can probably be done, but I need to know what everything is called. I want my car to handle nice but shoot hard. I don't want any crazy wobbly 4X4 feeling s**t either Oh and while we are on this, what are the biggest fatest tires that will run in the stock wheel wells on irocs.(without rubbing anything) Thanks guys

Welcome to the boards.

You just opened up a big can of worms my friend. Did you do a search on this? You'll probably get a whole lot of stuff if you do and save us a lot of typing. And I can't possibly give you every SINGLE part, that's just crazy. I'll give you a list of common upgrades and stuff that makes sense.

Here you go:

Front control arm bushings
tie rods, inner and outer both sides
center link
pitman arm
shocks/struts/springs
ball joints
dust boots
upper strut mounts
rotors
wheel bearings
rear LCAs and bushings
panhard rod and bushings
spring isolators
engine mounts
tranny mount
torque arm and bushing/mount

That's about it. Check out my rebuild page to see how it's done, search for my name.

Ed
