Hey guys just wondering what you think I should do to my '99 gen3 liberty GX wagon, I know seeing as it's NA that motor mods are near useless so I was thinking what you guys might reckon handling and looks wise that I should do, pretty keen to get it lower as it's got raised kingys in it now, gc8 front seats and a 2.5" straight pipe to a genie muffler, so it's semi loud, high and cuddles my sides aha

if your after handling go decent springs to your desired height + compatible struts + bigger sway bars
OR
you could probably just get away with coilovers without the sways bars

Yeah I was thinking that, not keen to spend heaps on coilovers so I reckon sway bars and all the rest is a go, do you know where's a good place to get thicker sway bars?

Whiteline or Cusco.

I'd get the coilovers over springs (new struts?) and swaybars.
Swaybars are just a band-aid for average struts & springs.

BC BR's are cheap enough.

+1 for whiteline and cusco. I have whiteline now, one of the most renown brands.

BC BR can be had for ~$1200 pink springs might stiffen up everything if you can fit them. New stuts (not sure on brand, maybe KYB?) will give youre car new life if you go down that path

I have KYB struts with whiteline rear swaybar + HD end links and unknown upgraded front swaybar. Handles fairly well and is predictable. Can definitely pick up the swaybars for cheap second-hand as well, look on FB.
