So, just give me a run down of what you're planning on doing. I haven't heard of such a thing. Please enlighten.

Ok, sorry, I read up a little more and found it. Interesting ideas for sure. I do like the dual piston caliper.

Re: started my wbody front suspention swap
Well it has been brought to my attention that the fbody brakes won't fit under my 15" wheels, so I am now in search of some 17"s. Time to sell some projects to get this project coming along quicker

Re: started my wbody front suspention swap
Well not necessarily a w body thing, but while i was at pick n pull looking for a ac compressor, I looked at the RPO codes on the 95 88 lss I was taking the compressor from and it had f41. I looked at the sway bars and they were HUGE. So today I learned how to install sway bars, I differed from the service Manuel in that I disconnected half the subframe to get the sway bars in and out.
But I will say that those made a huge difference. My steering is stiffer to turn and I can't get the car to under steer

Re: started my wbody front suspention swap
Yep they help quite a bit.. You most likely went from a 28mm front to a 32mm and for the rear you went from an 18 to a 22mm bar.. You should grab the rear springs from that car too...lol
