has anyone, or does anyone know if this sway bar setup is decent? the price is right, but I don't really wanna give up quality.

Suspension Techniques has been doing this thing for years. Good quality, products. I have these myself. I do believe Summit has a better price though.About the only real gripe people have is their lack of adjustability. Unless you know your stuff that should be a non issue. It also depends on what else you have going on in the suspension department.

well I plan to upgrade. but I'm at a stanstill cause I don't know if I should just replace the springs and the struts. or if I should go coilover, but like what if I hit a pothole....? the threads on the coilovers are at risk to strip, ya know.. I don't want that expence... I'm still going for drivibility too!

don't buy a cheap coilover. I'd still suggest struts or coils vs the sways for now since the stock sways don't blow out whereas the stock struts probably already are.

well new sways would still be good, just it would be limited by your blown struts (come on, it's already ~15 years old, the struts are probably blown) and that would be the limiting factor in your situation. I'd remedy the struts before the sways.
