Will be ordering some of these, since my car has T-tops. But will also be ordering front and rear sway bars, and shocks at the same time.

 

Who do you talk to?

 

My first mod huge difference a must

 

I completely agree, they transformed my car... the ride is better, it is quieter, handles better, feels more solid all around, I highly recommend them. I wish I would have gone with the 3 point SFC's though. My 120,000 mile/T-TOp car has never been better!

 

So if my car's tail end kind of snakes at high speeds when turning or changing lanes, will SFC's help eliminate that? Or could that be worn out bushings?

I'm really considering SFC's, but at 50 lbs, and so many negative reviews, albeit a lot of positive ones, I really feel iffy about this...

 

That's going to be more suspension related, not chassis stiffness.

But please, don't bump multiple old threads on the same basic topic. Keep all your questions in one as that is both more beneficial to you to have all the answers in one spot and far less annoying to everyone

 

So you think new bushings would help? Or maybe a sway bar? Or maybe shocks? or springs? I'm hoping to replace just one of these and notice a big difference. I have Bilstein shocks on right now...

 

What tires, bushings, control arms, sway bar, sway end links, panhard, etc do you have right now, how many miles on the car, and what speed are we talking here?

 

16 inch wheels, so I think that's the 245/50-16 tires, stock control arms, stock sway bar, stock panhard bar, bilstein shocks installed at 80,000 miles, stock springs, car has 97,000 miles now, speeds over 80MPH the car feels very squirrely, the rear end kind of snakes with turns or lane changes.

Honestly I'm not sure if I need new springs, new bushings for the control arms, maybe 17 inch wheels, but this problem hasn't always been here, it's gotten worse with age and miles. I'm guessing bushings and springs should alleviate the problem, your take?

 

Springs should be fine (at least not worn out, they really don't wear out too fast), shocks should be fine. I'd look at control arm bushings, sway bar end links, and also what brand of tire and how many miles are on them, are they wearing properly, etc... You could have the best suspension but if the tires are junk then it won't matter.

 

I picked up a set of UMI 3 points about a year ago and Ive noticed a big difference. The car feels much more stable going into turns and just more solid in general. I am still on the stock shocks/springs with 120k miles. My car is a convertible though so it probably made a much larger difference then in coupes or hard tops.

 

Best bang for the buck mod I've ever done! (Haven't done gears yet tho. That'd be the #2 best BFTB mod)
