Ground Control camber/caster inserts for your strut mounts. I am currently debating changing my HMS mounts for the GC units, or I may have a custom top clamp made to modify my HMS mounts better to eliminate stress fatigue.

I would say tires first, then maybe some aftermarket sway bars. How does the car feel? Is there anything that it does that you dont like?

Sorry not to jack the thread but this will help you also. Im not sure cause my rear lca's and panhard bar have been sitting in my closet cause i didnt want to put them on till i had the rear out for my new rear brakes and put the relocation brackets on. As of right now the car is getting restored and the body put on a jig so it will be a lil while longer. As far as how it felt it seemed a lil loose but i figured the rear lca's and panhard rod would cure alot of that. I had hotchkis sfc's also forgot to add that i dont like them though so there getting cut off then the cage is going on. The cage will be on hopefully by the end of winter im just getting it ready right now and cleaning up the floor boards and I cut out the rear seat brackets cause i didnt want them just not much time with my schedule. Oh for tires i was going to go with the goodyear eagle gs-d3's
