Post Update March 26, 2006

Installed Whiteline ALK "sport"
Replaced COBB front sway bar with the stock bar and bushings for auto-x'ing to reduce push.

The ALK and softer front bar gives me so much more grip in front! Power can be applied much sooner and more aggressively in the turns. There is a bit more front body roll but that is to be expected from the stock front bar.

NVH is up but only noticeable when driving over small bumps or lane "dots." The front goes "bam" and rear does not.

The main reason why I chose to replace the control arm aft bushings with an ALK is because I felt that the this was cause of a left pull during hard acceleration; I had hoped the stiffer ALK bushing would correct it. So far, it seems to have worked, but won't be 100% sure until Moose gets another alignment.

On the drawing board:
Trailing Links and DBA front rotors...
