Right now I have replaced the shocks and springs all the way around. I didn’t want to go crazy and spend thousands on suspension. I was hoping to spend another $500 or so on suspension for now. What would be the best to do next with that kind of budget.
Are body bushings a (at home in the garage) type job?
How many miles are on the car?. Like stated above the body bushings will stiffen stuff up. Spohn has rear control arms for like 275 for upper and lower with poly bushings. you dont have to get adjustable arms unless your looking for every bit of traction you can get. A good sway bar front and rear would help. look for a used 3rd gen firebird 36mm front sway bar. direct bolt on. It sucks if they already did front springs because the bushings dont take long to do when arms are off the car. Body bushings can be a real pain. where is the car from? If its a northern rust belt car its going to suck. There are write ups on how to do them. If all the bolts come out without issue the hard part is over. kirbans sells new bolts. Im sure Brian has them at GBODYPARTS as well.
Yes. If the bolts are rusted use plenty of penetrating lube daily for a week or so before attempting. I did mine when the car was a year old so it was a piece of cake. I did poly mounts with the extra one they put on the GNX. They're all still good 31 years and 210 k miles later.
