More Front Suspension help
 
I had posted last year about some suspension help and got alot of good feedback on the questions i asked.

This season I am finally completing the suspension. I am cutting some coils to lower the front end to gain two more inches of travel as i only have three inches now. I will be pulling the control arms off to be powder coated, and i will be ordering new Del-A-Lum bushings this week. the main question i have is what ball joint should i get? I heard things about the QA-1 ball joints on my last post but am also looking for first hand experience and what you guys are running.

What else do you suggest i do to the front end? Del-A-Lum bushings, QA-1 shocks, moroso springs, is what the car currently has.

thanks alot guys i appreciate it!!!

Howe precision ball joints. You can get them with up to a .5" longer stud to increase your front end travel. Best place I have found to get them is www.SCandC.com. They can build them for you with whatever length stud you want.
