Ok so i will be re-doing my steering system.. all of the shocks and coils with bilisten rear shocks and some rally shocks off a TAFE teacher(will be getting more info soon) for the front and then Lovells Coils sport low all round.
My questions are is there anything else worth doing wilst doing these. etc bushings, sway bars? and would i need a camber kit?
any help will be greatly appreciated, even just a link to a similar thread![]()

camber kit is only worth doing if you have irs diff. front and rear strut links, strut tops if they are shagged (keep to normal rubber), sway bar bushes are cheap. just check all the bushes for saggying and tears
how can i tell if i have IRS? alright ill looked into those, should i replace them with just GM parts or should i go aftermarket? i will prob keep the car for a while so i want to do a good job of it, im only 17![]()

Well nolathane strut links are alot better than they use to be especially with the thicker front bars. i have found its not worth going adjustable strut tops, too much pain with wheel alignments, also rubber strut tops last a hell of a lot longer. these can be purchased from pedders, just get someone else to fit them. I have had my vn 12 years now so with general maintance the car should last. Also keep note of that your engine and gearbox mounts are like
ok will dois an adjustable sway good to have? might be getting a new one off my TAFE teacher for free... what do you mean that my engine and gearbox mounts are like??

since your under neath you might as check for other rubber pieces for deterioration. just remember, anything thats adjustable its best to get someone else to adjust it for you until you can work it out yourself
ok sweet as. yea ill get someone to put that in since im still learning my way around the carthanks a ton mate you're a top bloke, ill post any more questions that i might come up with later
