COcutlass72

Hello.

I have decided to tackle the suspension and brakes on my cutlass to get it on the road. Let me know what you guys think about the products I'm ordering please, it is a lot of coin so I want to do it right.

I was going to do the PST front kit on my cutlass, I had one with the same set up years ago and it handled like a dream, but for 150 more I found this setup.

Okay for springs I'm planning on doing rockauto, stock, I am just not sure about lowering my car, not sure what it will look like. Also I'm planning on ordering new shock of the standard variety.

I'm going to also order PST body bushings and go with stock bushings on the rear, since I read anything different will bind.


Brakes - I'm taking her from drums all around to

I'm going to sand everything under her down and paint it with POR15.

Now, I'm going to use the car as my DD, I love to feel the road and want it to hug it when I'm driving, like a sport car lol


Let me know what you guys think, I'm hoping to stay south of 2500.00....

I just replaced all the worn out parts on my car and added a couple of big sway bars and it handles real well. That looks like over kill for a daily driver. But that's just my opinion.

I'm okay with over-kill, since its going to be my dd I want it to handle.

Those control arms are prices too cheap and with no name brand I would assume they are a Chinese knock off of a good component. I am not trusting my life with them.

Do your self a favor and call Marcus at SC&C. You can think me later.

Looks like Chineseium to me as well, I thought that I would come across as a jerkif I said anything though. I just don't trust most "kits" from fleabay unless they are of a name brand. YMMV but my gut just tells me it isn't a good idea.
