      i am putting new control arms in...i am guessing they will come with the bushings installed already?

      also to add i have a bad Balljoint so that's why i am replacing the whole control arm(s) it self.

        control arms and CABs are two different parts.

                    Any particular reason you're insisting on the Eibach kit? There are other springs that are MUCH better on the street. And there are other springs that are MUCH better on the track.

                      I agree, if you can afford it , do the back end now too, your not looking at a ton of money or time
                      and then you can get a 4 wheel alignment and all will be good

                        I asked and no body gave me a good answer, and i don't really wanna be to low because roads here are shitty.

                        also once i am done with all what i ahave listed i will probably get the X-brace kit from ejnight.

                          That's what I was going to say. Stay away from Eibachs for these cars.

                              So, why Eibachs?
