    Default Suspension Overhaul

    So I have a BAT Kit I will be installing in a few months, what else should I look at replacing on a 75k old SVT? Thanks.

    Front strut bearings would be a good idea. Camber kits will give you adjustability for caster and camber should you need it. Beyond that it depends on the condition of other things. If the front A arm busings or ball joints are worn this is a good time to replace the A frames since you will already have part of them loose to install the struts.

    sway bar bushings ..... also at least clean and re-grease the front strut bearings if you don't replace them
