Default looking to.purchase SFC and LCA

Ive been doin a ton of reading. Im planning on doin my suspension soon on my 98/T56. Vehicle will remain stock height,with no intentions of lowering,never will see autocross. It clocks about 2-4000mi annually. No strip use,but lots of street action. Has an adjustable torque arm from previous owner and is in upper 300s on HP. 18x10.5s in rear

Plans: Buy weld in 2 point SFC ,boxed prefered but tube is fine
Buy Tube non adjustable LCA (chime in here)
New shocks (brand rec?)
Possibly new springs, even though I think mine are fine.

I would to order the SFC/LCA today, does any of our sponsors stock them for immediate shipping?

Cant go wrong with UMI or BMR, I personally have all umi components in my suspension and have no complaints whatsoever.

Consider getting 3-points. 2-points will keep your car straight but body roll can still be noticed.

Buy Tube non adjustable LCA (chime in here)
Poly bushings will be ok since you're not lowering your car, so long as you use a good grease. I think BMR has a rubber bushing option with their LCAs. Consider that for a more stock feel.

New shocks (brand rec?)
Possibly new springs, even though I think mine are fine.

You can be here all day asking about these. I don't know anyone off the top of my head that makes aftermarket stock height springs (QA1 maybe?). Shocks, I would say Bilsteins.

Installed SFC and LCA (weld in 2 point boxed & non adj poly/poly) today and all I can say is wow! Car is definitely more ridged, I noticed from the moment I pulled out the the shops parking lot. Ordered on Friday,late and parts was at my door Wed,even came with a tube of grease! Anybody on the fence about installing SFC..DO IT.

I also swapped out the rubber Trans mount for a ES, grinded humps and toss preload plate, had to shim crossmemember with a single washer on each bolt to get Trans perfect and coupled with the SFC,my shifts feels positive on my T56.
