So i got tired of that "Sofa" like ride in my monte and decided to rebuild the entire suspension.
I've owned the car since 2002

Modifications Consist Of the following parts/processes:
- Energy Suspension Polyurethane Hyperflex Kit
- Detroit Speed front tubular sway bar 1 1/8"
-Detroit Speed rear tubular sway bar 1 1/4"
-Bilstein Sport Tuned shocks
-SPC Performance Pro Coil springs
-Boxed in lower control arms
- Moog Ball Joints & tie rod ends

Starting off with some photos of where i started with it:





Now on to the suspension:

Purpose of me putting this up is to get it out there since i had trouble finding people other than guys like Joe Hinds, Ben Meissner, and the other handful of g body vets really reworking their suspension in detail. I do eventually plan to autocross it. Let me know what you guys think and if i could ever be a resource to anyone. I also have the lower control arm sheet metal templates.

Looking good and welcome to the forum. You must be down south to be still working outside.


Thanks appreciate it. Ive had an account before just never had the time to be active.
No room in the garage so i'm building outside. So-cal.
