Time to install some parts..

I get my sway bars, camber kit, and new struts installed today. I would take a pics to do a DIY but my digital cam is M.I.A. Does the sway bars do much? I have them so I'm going to install them... but I still ask myself is the cash really worth it? Thanks. I hope everything goes well

Make sure the car gets aligned, if not in the shop now- then drive 50 miles to set everything, check for tighness- adjust anything for clearance and then alignment.

Sway bars work with weight transfer.
See gen 3 thread by MichealBenz for full tech details

You will notice the car does not lean in the turns so much
The trade off is a slightly rougher ride, but lowering and other
mods you are doing will work with that issue
Enjoy!

Thanks 01tl4tl You are right I got them installed I wanted to go around town but I was too tired so I just went to a few turns and the car doesn't move as much. The car is lower and the struts were really needed. For anyone who is thinking of doing them yourself... Do it! Just make sure you get the car off the floor as much as you can it will make it much easier. Other then that it was pretty much straight forward.(On the sway bars)
