yeah thats true lol, but hey it just gives me an excuse to buy more stuff. her driving in the winter months is what worries me the most. so grill gaurd is a must. needs new shocks so i figure i might as well upgrade them while im in there. figure some nice tires and a little lift kit to keep her higher up off the ground so if someone smashes into her shes a little higher up, probably cause her to roll though ey? also what should i look into for body roll. new sway bars?

seems these addco ones have a pretty good reputation. and the size is funny compared to the stock ones lol

i got bitten by the bug lol i cant help it now. im just worried the ride will be to stiff for these michigan roads. should i try the addco sway bars first and see if that helps with the sway and ride quality before doing the shocks?

no you won't need new sway bars, maybe bushings if they are worn out
explain this "body roll" your experiencing

just when turning corners like merging on the highway around the clover you can feel it, kinda like it wants to roll. i know its a bigger suv and its going to be top heavy but i would like to cut down on it a little bit

new shocks and springs should work, lift springs are usually stiffer
