I'm running both tall uppers and lowers, currently in the middle of a spring change. The tall ball joints too make a larger difference. I'm already running the 36mm IROC front bar and Helwig rear.
 
403Olds Thanks for that bit of information. What spring you're changing to?
 
I think to properly use upper tall ball joints you need aftermarket arms designed for them to correct the geometry issues.

That is a clean underbody, one of the few cars I seen that is cleaner than mine. Also see a rear axle mount rear sway bar. So far I have only a 34 mm front sway bar and GP bar, really need to swap out the V6 springs.
 
Pontiacgp I don't plan to trim or cut the 5660 springs. I currently have the speedway upper control arms with my tall ball joints
 
That hellwig adj rear swaybar really makes a difference, one of the best upgrades for these cars
 
Wheel alignment is something I plan to look into after the upgrade I just mention are the installed. Is anyone running tall upper and lower ball joints on their gbody???

We run half inch lower and one inch upper. As little as 1/2" upper can help significantly though.

 
I have the 36 mm hollow bar up front with 5660 springs trimmed 3/8 of a coil and 1/2 tall lower ball joint. I have a GTA 24mm rear bar with a 67 Chevelle rear. I had a passenger in my car who builds the G body for asphalt circle tracks said my car was the most stable G body he had been in.
Any pics of that GTA 24mm rear bar? I also have a 67 chevelle rear end. It's a 12 bolt. I want to get some stability on the rear end and haven't been able to find anything yet. Also where did you get the GTA rear bar? Thanks!!
