My parts are ordered

A couple of months ago I ordered Pedders springs for my LS, but I didn't install them because of the bad winter weather around here. Earlier today I odered FE5 struts and shocks. One strut is backordered, but once they come in I'll spend a Sunday morning putting them on

After that if I have any money left, I will pull some 17 x 7.5 wheels out of my basement and get them re-finished, then put some 235/45/17 Nitto Invos on them

Once I get everything else done, I'll be doing my swaybars and endlinks.

Whenever I upgrade suspensions, I do them in a certain order, starting with the basics

If possible, I usually like to go:

1)body mounts
2)Control arms and solid suspension parts
3)shocks and springs
4)tires
5)swaybars
6) rack or steering box

Granted with the HHR a lot of this isn't possible, nor do I want to spend that much money on my beater, but I am still anxious to have a few beers and put my new stuff on the HHR, once it all comes in

Just got my tracking info from UPS. My parts should be here by the end of the day on Friday. I am busy these next two weekends though, so I don't know when I'm going to get a chance to install everything.
