BAT upgrades

[jtmccann81]

I am planning to buy the european handleing kit from BAT. I am also going to be upgrading the rear subframe and the rear sway bar (from stock to 21mm) while I have the suspension off. I want to know is this a good way to go for our cars? I am going to be replacing all of the bushings while there no reused bushings.

I put the BAT spring/strut combo on my daily driven CSVT commuter mule six months ago. Love it!

Be sure to put upper strut mounts on both the front and rear while your in there.

Haven't done the sway bar or the rear subframe so I can't comment on those.

I've had my BAT european handling kit for a long time, about 80,000 miles, and I am very satisfied. The front struts are making clunking noises but they use beilstein's now IIRC instead of no-namers that I got.

No they don't use bilsteins. The price would jump. The struts that come are custom valved for the springs. That's why they don't have a sticker on them.

I just ordered the BAT Suspension + Camber plates and control arms. Currently the car still has original struts. I will post back once everything is installed. Probably around Christmas.

I was thinking of getting the BAT kit for my 90k mile SVT DD. What did you mena SpeedinBob by "upper strut mounts"?
