ordering with the stab bar is $740.36. if one changes the stab bar im thinking the bushings and links have to be changed too. thats an extra 49.85 for a total of 790.21. i want to do this but if i can get away without the stab bar and lower ca's ($463.38)id rather do that. gonna have to go to the stealership tomorrow and check it out.

All I want to do is get rid of that ugly wheel gap and get it so it handles better in the corners. I am planning on installing a DC strut bar also. See how it all ties together and works.

but your dealer ship is going to tell you that your strut and shocks will not be replaced when they go on you.
so when something finaly comes out, I would recoment you get it as well

I can answer one of your questions
The control arm difference is for weight. The Aluminum SS control arm is designed to reduce the unsprung weight of the car. Lighter unsprung weight means less inertia for the spring to have to move, hence better spring response.
The parts are interchangeable.
