suspension gurus......question inside relating to front end
what parts are inmcluded in the fonrt end of a 1996 Z28? i have a SLP level 1 kit coming in and while im at it i figure i might as well replace all my 75,000 mile stock pieces with Moog pieces. if you could list them or send me a link t hat has them that would be great. pricing to replace it all would be cool too. i want to build a car that corners like a bastard......
thanks,
brian

"Corners like a bastard" most of the time, = driver, race tires, and alignment.
Springs/shocks and that sort, will depend on what kind of track and speeds you'll be seeing.

well, im not gonna be auto crossing it a lot, but i would like to be able to once in awhile. here is what i have done:
BMR STB, kenny brown DD SFC's, SLP level 1 suspension package, endery suspension endlinks and bushings. basically what im looking for is the replacement of all the stock front end pieces and was looking for a list of what i could do (ie. ball joints, tie rod ends, etc).
thanks,
brian

I'm no guru, but if you want to change out your front parts you can get a chromolly k-member, ($500ish), Chromolly adjustable uper and lower A's ($400ish each) and whack about 40-60lb from your front end in the process.Rigidity from sfc and phr/lcas.. Sway bars($420), Big slotted brakes if you don't have em, some light 17 inch rims with great rubber, and koni dual adjustables all around and you'd have absoluteley ruled out all factors other than operator error/poor setup. Should be able to do it maxing out a single credit card or selling the wife's car......
