What is the best way and best parts to upgrade gm's shitty shotty suspension on our cars. Ive had control arm problems,stabilzer link problems, so whats next?

 

Upgrading those sort of parts can get pricey when especially they don't need to be replaced unless they are complete ****

 

ummm. well it depends. whats your price range?


what are you going to be using your car for?

 

Just daily driving and some odd track runs basically! I notice in the winter my suspension gets noisy! Something to do with the control arm.

 

There ya go. That should fix your "Shitty suspension"

 

DD? no track use?

pedders springs, stronger end links, what control arm issues?

 

LNF shocks, Pedders springs, PowerGrid endlinks, and OTTP CABs. Problems solved.

 

Thats a good set up at reasonable cost

 

how much would it cost for alleycat's set up? I know sc suspensions have issues,so i want to upgrade before i break something!

 

IIRC around $600 including shipping. It's been a while since I bought mine so I don't remember so well how much everything was but $600 is close.

 

Pedders $369
FE5 tc strut/shocks $292
Powergrid sway bar endlinks $160
Control arm bushings $199

total = $1020
doesnt include shipping

 

So is the turbo charged suspension better then the SC? Ive already had a stabilzer link go, and now when i hit bumps,the car shakes so much, and it feels like the time i got air in my old trans am when i gunned it over railway tracks that had a little incline, and when i landed i thought i broke something! My head was out of the t roof!LOL Anyways the landing was hard,and feels like my ss! My car has even shut off from hard hits! Are my struts gone maybe?

start at post #20. You pretty much get your answer there. But, IMO, t/c suspension is better because they track tuned it at Nurburgring.

 

OEM suspension could be adjust? My car is also really hard on the suspension and I'm not happy about it.
