I plan to get the IPD sway bar kit when they have their July 4th garage sale
for the east cost. They have heavy duty end links, and spring seats as well.

I hadn't seen any reference to the heavy spring seat while cruising the Brickboard archives, has anyone tried them and are they better than the unreliable volvo and aftermarket spring seats?

The other item is their strut tower brace. It may be a good addition to the car
if you're adding the heavy sway bar? Anyone do this for a daily driver?
I'm not racing, but I treasure quality handling.

I'm planning to switch to Bilstein Touring Struts and shocks along with the sway bar stuff. Some of my respected local mechanics think that HD struts may cause
new problems and it might be best to do the Bilstein Touring rather than the HD or OEM.

IPD stuff may be top quality, but their prices are up there, so I'll wait for their sale.

Comments appreciated, Bill
