I'm really hating my suspension setup right now due too the around my area having cracks and holes the size of the grand cayon. I'll give you some tips though that would have helped me when i started setting my suspension up.

Tires make a lot of difference to the feel of the suspension, choose wisely. Get wide wheels if you can afford them or afford them somehow, better regretting it 1 week later. Get a good tire pressure gauge.

Pillowball tension rods don't work for street at all. Don't brace the front more than the rear unless you want massive amounts of understeer. If you get a sway bar just get a rear one because the stock front one is more than enough. Set the suspension up according to what you want; understeer or oversteer.

Tighten everything atleast twice once its in. Get an aligment once you are sure that you ain't going to do anymore suspension work.

Get some good seats to hold you (something i haven't done yet that i really want to get done). Have fun!
