Nice, that'll keep you busy for part of the day. Not doing any other suspension stuff with it all apart?

(shoulda gone for the HDs...)

Hehehe, I went with the KYBs back when I went through my front suspension, and ~15k later I went to HDs, and MAN, what a WASTE of money/time going with KYBs in the beginning.

Wagon overloads and HD front springs I assume? Or are those their lowering springs?(I think they carry some???)

B+G springs, Billy TC's and damn it sits low, and HANDLES. I don't want HD's where I'm gonna lose my teeth on every bump, sufficiently stiff atm.

my TCs and cut TMEs are fine. it makes for a mild suspension, perfect imo for a DD...

Good upgrades! Bistein HD shocks are firmer than the TC version but are not something to make the ride harsh. I've got revalved Bistein HD and they still ride nicely. In my car the HD version actually rode better with lowering springs than with stock springs because the damping was better matched to the springs. Be sure to get the poly bushings in at least the rear torque arms for more handling improvement.

TC's are fine, but, HD's are waaaaaaaay better. Either way, your car probably handles 10 times better than what it did before the swap...

Agreed. I had new KYB GR2s(similar to TCs) in my car when I first went through the suspension, and I recently changed over to the HDs, I can't believe I wasted money on the GR2s. Saving money then was a STUPID idea.

Box of parts thread FTL. Lets see them on the car, or at least a parts and price list.
