suspension q's and advice

[NEILL93SHO]

I am having eibachs/tokicos put on this week. i am wondering what difference this will make in body lean in corners. should i invest in a larger rear swaybar?> any advice would be appreciated.

I don't know the stock sway bar combo on your year SHO so can't speak to that. However if everything's coming off I'd repalce all the bushings and the strut mounting hardware. Check out SHO Nut Performance and Prosuspension.com for some ideas.

There is a great effect for the investment (bang for the buck) from installing polyurethane bushings on the front and rear sway bar brackets and the rear bar's end links. The larger bars from the Gen Is help to limit the body roll.

The Eibachs / Tokicos will help keep the wheels planted on the pavement over bumps, but the swaybars / bushings & strut tower bars will help reduce body roll more.

I've got the following suspension mods to my 95:
(not counting 17" wheels, which make a difference)

welded subframe connectors
24mm front bar / ES Poly Bushings
26mm rear bar / ES Poly Bushings
front strut tower bar
rear strut tower bar
Eibach springs
Tokico struts
rear H-brace
aluminum subframe bushings

I also have new front & rear endlinks, though not really a mod. The ride is harsher than normal, but I'm getting used to it over time. It's a VERY tight car, minimal (if any) tire squeal, and you just turn & go where & how hard you want to go. Very nice on the corners, but a bit harsh for a daily driver.

I think i will end up going with the larger Rear SB and poly mounting bushings. Is there much involved with the front SB bushings replacement? Thanks for the help guys.

I just got the Eibach springs and Tokico shocks, along with the police front strut tower bearing combo from ShoNut.
Before I install, I want to get new poly bushings. Who carries a good complete set for the 1993 SHO? Also, what about isolators at the tops of the springs? I see Energy carries some. The stock rubber isolators on top of my stock front springs are shot, as are the strut boots. The Tokicos did not come with new strut boots, so what will replace them?
I want to get it all done at once.
