Lowering Car, what else to change?

[Cúl-Báire]

Hi Guys,

I finally picked up a set of Superlows off eBay for a decent price, with the hope of lowering my trusty SS this coming weekend. The process seems fairly simple and I am pretty handy with a spanner so it shouldn't be an issue.

The car has FE2 gas shocks in the rear, and FE2 struts in the front both of which are fairly new, so they won’t be replaced, and a camber kit in the rear already. The car still handles really well, and shows no signs of any dud bushes or anything like that.

Is there any else I "should" be replacing, or is worth replacing when I change the springs?

Did you do the front strut mounts an bearing when the struts were done?
The bearings will be most likely gone.
If not, make sure that the spring settles back into where it should be when you put it back together (the strut) so you don't bugger up the bearing.
the rear crossmember outer bushes will more than likely be torn.
The inner front control arm bushes may be worn, but as with the crossmember bushes, they are both a *10# of a job, so don't bother, they'll be right.
