			not a bad package. but it would also buy a tq arm, all new shocks and tierods while you're at it, that way its all done while you're under there. That price isnt bad for all that, but have you looked if you can buy directly from hotchkis, it may be cheaper. oh and id suggest go black, thats what im doing, it think it makes it all look a little less noticeable and more like stock

			I would buy it from summit racing. For the extra money the peace of mind of getting it in about 3days is worth it. Just my 2cents. I have all of that kit except the sway bars. It's nice stuff. I have the bmr torque arm coming next week. Joe

			Rear Spings dropped the back of my 87 TA too low...kept bottoming out with my SLP exhaust. Took them out and put the stockers back in. Car looked much better with the dropped nose and stock rear height...but not rediculous like my 77 FB with the Hi-Jackers air shocks...so it looked like a freakin drag car with 15" tires....haha. Good 'ol days.
