Default 5th gen suspension question

Guys, if which are the sequence for these aftermarket parts considering I can only buy them one at a time:

1. Koni yellows
2. Eiback springs or GC coilovers
3. Sway bars

Please order based on the most important improvement to suspension.

Thxxxxx

but you have to do the entire installation twice for #1 and #2. Also the Ground Controls for the 6th gens have a high spring rate that would kill the stock shocks quickly. I think the same applies to 5th gens :dunno:

You could buy my sprint springs I would even be willing to negotiate the price a little.

Do it all and save the labor. btw, that's a nice and good suspension setup. :thumbup:

I installed all of the mods myself and save tons of labor. Next is to learn how to Do a H22 Swap for my next project

just buy the parts as you can afford them or whatever and do it all in one day yourself.. it's not a hard install at all.

#1 and #2, as LX4CYL said, sould be done at the same time because the spring and shock/strut assembly have to come apart for both.

well...I;m in Asia for the time being so labor is cheap.
Installing shocks cost like $20 to $50 max hehehe...

Thats why I wanna do it one by one
