Tha Cavi Kid

i am about to through my cobalt under the knife and do full suspention upgrades. i have front/rear anti sway bars, new lowering spring, new struts, front / rear strut bars, new front brakes, new front wheel bearings (havent gone bad yet, but might as well) ARP wheel studs for all 4 wheels, le5 control arms and steering rack spacers all waiting to go in the car.









just wondering how far others have gone in thier upgrades in this area. what are you riding on currently?

pics would be cool too if you have any.

Currently running Ksport Kontrol Pro coilovers, steering rack spacers (just throwing this in so no one mentions it lol), poly front sway bar bushings, new GM control arms with Powell trailing control arm bushings, Whiteline adjustanble front swaybar end links, and hardcore rear swaybar. Just about everything suspension wise has been touched or changed. lol

Front: SS/TC FE5 struts, roadmagnet springs, powergrid endlinks, moog cabs, ottp rack spacers

Rear: Koni shocks, roadmagnet springs, hardcore sway bar

Handles like its on rails.

Not sure why everyone is mentioning trans mounts.... not really a suspension item, but.... Powell stage 1 rotated for me, SS/TC rear.

Tha Cavi Kid

sounds like the rack spacers are something imissing for the new set up. anyone running traction bars? i am getting the powell lower trans mount and i have an engine damper on the way to help limit engine movement, but i am not sure if this will help with the wheel hop or not.

Ssc springs - nice drop, keeps the rake, not too low, rides close to stock except tighter obviously

Koni adjustable rear shocks - do not over tighten or holy.**** you will feel everything haha

Kyb front strut replacements - supposed to be able to handle a drop, whatevs

Zzp front sway bar- not really needed, but might have made a difference,

Moog sway bar endlinks - just get em

Moog control arm bushings - felt a big difference but then again my stockers were shot, same for endlinks haha

Moog rear spring mounts - great to have

Moog sway bar bushings - needed. Little more Firm for sure.

Unbeknownst rear swaybar - made a HUGE difference on turnin.

Ottp rack spacers. Needed? I guess.

All engine mounts, powell and ottp top trans mount. Lnf rear mount. New lsj engine mount.

Arp studs with 1/2" spacers in rear and 1" hub adapters up front.

Im happy with my setup. Looks great and rides like a cobalt! Lol. Im just glad its all new now so i should be good for a while, does decent in chicagoland.
