Suspension will be upgraded with new bushings all the way around.

New springs from Original Parts Group front and rear should drop the car around 2". THESE SPRINGS AND KYB SHOCKS WERE TOO MUSHY!
The sway bars will be beefed up with thicker bars and poly bushings from Performance Suspensions. The front gets a 1 5/16" bar and the rear 1/18"

New KYB gas shocks SHOULD HAVE held it all together, this with the springs were too soft for my taste.randy75s3's 1975 Chevrolet Laguna

I called Original Parts Group back but they were unable to help after they had been installed on the car. I then called Global West Suspensions and they were very helpful.
They suggested I go with their springs and a full set of Koni adjustable shocks.

That is the way to go. The car rides great now. Good, firm ride.

The front disc rotors were too worn so a good time to go with the twin calipers with slotted rotors from Stainless Steel Brakes.

The rear drum brakes also get the disc conversion

It's a tight fit with the rear discs and lower springs.

Very nice Randy, That's a lot of work and no doubt a LOT of $$$! Are the power windows factory or aftermarket?
