Replacing rear springs

Hello all, Soon I will be replacing the rear spring son my 95 Z and have a few questions. Since I am having a mechanic do the unstall, I want to make sure I get all the right parts.

Rear springs and the rubber isolators,I know the rear sway bar gets unbolted, should I get 1le rear sway bar links/bushings or stay with stockers so as to not affect the handling?

Anything I have missed? Thanks for the help.

Get the Energy Suspension sway bar end links and you'll never have to mess w/ them again.

Rear springs are easy...unbolt the sway bar,unbolt the bottom shock bolts and lower the rear down and they almost fall out.

Don't need a mech! This is definitely DIY stuff. Be careful of the brake flex hose on top of the differential.
