Upgrading a Fairly Stock Suspension

I agree with C130 Chief. I would add, in terms of shocks, to also take a look at RideTech. they have a shock line (also partnered with Fox) that includes an electronically adjustable shock to go from a plush ride type dampening to a more performance oriented dampening. They also have single, double, even triple ($$$) adjustable shocks. There shocks have been getting rave reviews on some other forums (pro-touring.com, lateral-g.net, and others). They continuously perform, and place, well in auto-cross competitions and track days. I don't believe the new Hotchkis/Fox shocks are adjustable, but I could be wrong. They have already determined the optimal valving for each application and sell that. I don't really care too much for something that can be adjusted at all to your specific vehicle, because they all differ. That said, I'm using the electronically adjustable RideTech's in my build.

As BrianT said, definitely get ALL the bushings, etc, replaced, then move to springs/shocks/sway bars.
