Talking BUSHES, DROPLINKS, etc GUIDENCE PLEASE

when i brought my scooby, i never thought i would get so carried away, however with all these group buys springing up its hard not to get involved

right i have a new set of BC coilovers on order from bren which i will be receiving next month, however i have noticed another group buy bren is doing which is for drop links, bushes etc

Bren if you read this, sorry for not coming to you but i can imagine you are all very busy and to be honest i dont really know what im talking about so dont know the right questions to ask LOL

this is what bren is selling and to be honest it all sounds like it would improve my cars handaling but i dont know enough about any of it.
for example, will it make my ride to harsh, will it cause my wheels to rub on the edges (something ive heard anti lift kits do)
is it best to buy everything, or just certain components

just to clarify, i have ordered the BC coil overs 5/4 spring rating BR series

These are manufactured by powerflex
BUSHES KIT
Front wishbone forward bushes
Front wishbone rear bushes
Front anti roll bar mounting bushes
Rear tie bar bushes
Rear tie bar to hub bushes
Rear anti roll bar bushes

You can also order any or all of the following:

Front anti roll bar drop link set
Rear beam mounts
Rear anti roll drop link set
Rear diff mounts

all help and guidence will be appriciated......

MANY MANY THANKS

Most important info is that you need the vehicle geometry setting after fitting ALK or some/all of the above, to avoid tyre wear issues.

I would still recommend an uprated adjustable rear anti-roll bar, (preferably with drop-links) as this kills the Scooby understeer and is very good value for money.
