Dealt with a few. Depends on what you want to achieve and how deep your pockets are. Most typical/ average setups are roughly all in the 3-4k range for the complete actuall cost of needed parts. Excludes 2nd hand deals

Do you want to maintain a stock look with factory parts with bushings/shocks etc or is this a protouring G machine direction.
Many options out there. |

I'm sure you can spend $1000 - $10000+. I'm not sure what I'm willing to spend at this time but I don't want to spend $10k for something that I can get the same result from for less. I'm looking for anyone that has use a kit that worked well. Brand and the price. It will be a street car and not used on the track so not looing to get sick. I like the kit fast and loud guys used Ridetech. looks like you can spend $3500+ there. My bandit car suspension is already done so I'm not sure I will replace it. I also might pro tour my 72 formula so I haven't decided which one I will be doing.

I've been very happy with my Hotchkis Sport Suspension. it's 2" lower then stock and works well. full suspension replacement cost me around $2000.

I bought the Hotchkis kit too. Front lowering coil springs and rear lowering leaf spring kit. Only heard good things about these lowering parts.
