All solid mount adjustable rod-ends on mine with a tunnel mount TA. Very rough/stiff and loud, but worth it.

Thanks for all the input guys. For right now I need to buy some springs, put on my front bilsteins/1LE swaybar and get some LCAs/brackets.

Spohn:
Poly end adj LCA
LCA drop brackets
Adj TA relocated with driveshaft loop
Adj PHB poly/ball end
KYB AGXs with Eibach Prokit
SFC welded
Stock sway bars

I like my set up. Its not the most forgiving ride, or the most ideal set up for the track. However, I feel my set up is a nice compromise for performing the street/strip double duty.

I don't know how everyone else feels, but with my car the Subframe Connectors were the single best susp/chassis mod I did to my car. It completely improved the feel of the whole car and eliminated most of my rattles and squeaks. (note: my car has t tops)

I'm still experimenting with my shock settings. Hopefully someone else can chime in that has more track time with them then I do.

Next item will be a K frame for the front and maybe sway bars. I'm still kinda undecided about sway bars. Anyone have any input on them?

It's good to see I'm not the only one. They were on my car when I got it so I have just left them set where they were then. lol
