new rear shocks

I put new bilsteins on the back to go with the new fronts I put on a few months ago and dear god what a difference. It's a 92 Z Vert and I got all the new (large) sway bars and bushings installed earlier this month. The front end and steering is done. The 9 bolt posi with PBR rear disc is done with alum driveshaft and torque arm bushing. The rear shocks were the last thing to be done and they were the originals. Gravity would pull them up and down they were so worn out. The car is actually amazing now. This is the first time I have ever done an old car in a fairly quick time frame to see how big a difference it all makes and everything I mentioned has made a HUGE DIFFERENCE. You guys wanting to replace those old bushings or go with bigger bars go right ahead because it is shocking what it did to mine. The car still has the original 305 TPI auto but now has a 327 posi 9 bolt and handles like a maniac. The bilsteins are expensive but have a lifetime warranty and since I am going to keep the car I decided to splurge.
