Default Suspension

Any time you mess with your suspension you should have your alignment checked. These parts will make a change in your suspension settings but not drastically. I say you should be okay. When you finish upgrading your suspension then you will need to get the alignment done.

Good Luck!

Not really, but i will tell u from experience that u should buy the good bars now. I bough the cheap EBAY ones and they aren't as good. The best bars are the non adjustable ones.

I have to go with Hatch on this don't bother going cheap. You don't know the quality of it, but to each it's own you know. Good luck.

If you are going for the looks of having a strut bar, that should be the only reason you go cheap. Anyone know the quality of the Spoon Strut bar?
