just want to get the thing done in one sitting, and work from there... trouble is if I leave it until it's all back together then it will never get done. The car used to be quite soft on it's Konis, and the mudflaps ( ford original ones) would drag on the floor on fast roundabouts etc , where the car is going fairly slowly but you are throwing it in hard ( very quiet ones and late at night I might add)... With a combination of the billies and comp struts, I was aiming for slightly less bodyroll but without ruining the ride too much, hence going for gravel billies and a fairly soft spring..

The roll bar is an option for a later date if it turns out to be crap But I do appreciate your point about trying things before changing them, in the ideal world it would be 1 item at a time and work through the settings, but I have tried to put together the best package I can and will work from there....

Incidently, what front top mounts would you advise? I was going to run just plain spherical bearing top mounts with no adjustment, as again the majority of the settings could be achived via the TCA's and the Comp struts, and change the top mounts should they become an issue?
