Ok guys, I'm trying to decide what i should do next. I am debating between QA1 double adjustable shocks with 300 lb springs, tubular upper and lower a-arms, racing seats, 6 pt roll bar, or drag sway bar. They are all around the same price range and I am only going to do one now then maybe another around Jan/Feb. Which would you go with first?

Shocks sound like a good path.

That's what I was thinking because all I have right now on the front are stock replacements which I put on about 2-3 years ago. Do you know which would be better between single adjustable and double adjustable?

No I don't I mean I have stock suspension...not one for lowering cars even though I might swap my buddies springs from my stock springs to his softer springs on his lowered firebird but im unsure of the reprocussions.

Do the shocks first. They would be the most gain for your money

Ok I think I will go with shocks first. Now, what would be a better shock QA1 F series, QA1 R series or Strange. I am also planning on 300 lb springs.

Shocks first, then roll bar/ seats (when you have a roll bar you must also have 5pt harness, stock seats may not accomidate this so aftermarket seats may be needed) , if you have good traction and roll rotation begins to occur then the drag bar. If roll rotation isn't a problem yet then go with the lower arms, you can lube the uppers and use bolts with nylox (sp?) washers to loosen up the uppers for a few $, no need in buying uppers unless your wanting the appearance. I'd modify the uppers when you do shocks since your gonna have them out anyway.
