Default help with my super cheap suspension setup

i just picked up springs, shocks, and front and rear swaybars for $100
i was told it's the "level one" slp upgrade. i believe these are the springs/shocks
http://www.slponline.com/view_produc...02&BIG=70002-1
it's all off of a firehawk. 10k miles on all of it.

is this a decent setup for street use?

do i need the full polyurethane bushing/hardware kit to install the swaybars? what additional hardware is required for the shocks?

any input is appreciated

You should get a swaybar endlink and bushings kit for the front and rear swaybars. I'd personally recommend Prothane because I have some fitment issues with my Energy Suspension endlinks and bushings.

ok thanks.

i really can't afford koni's and strano's but i figured bilsteins and eibachs would be better than kyb's and ebay coilovers. stock shocks are starting to go anyway. not looking for a complete autox setup, just a decent all around system.
