Which mods to get?

What should I get first? I dont plan on any major road racing, but would like to improve my handling and traction.

Lower Control Arms
Panhard Bar
Swaybars
Shocks
Replace bushings on front end


Subframe connectors are on the way, but everything else is stock. I dont want to lower the car. Thanks, Doug

well..its not on the list and i really liked the outcome is the lakewood traction action lift bars..looks sweet gives the 1st gen look under the rear axle... on launch my whole rear would squat (yep even on my lil ol 6) but not anymore. It comes with LCA's too (wish i knew that b4 i bought the lca's)

I would recommend saving the money on the LCA's and Panhard bar and boxing them in yourself. I did It and noticed a differance. At that same time I put in Poly bushings everywhere except the motor mounts. SFC are next. The stock sway bars on my car I think are big enough 36mm Front 24mm Back
