Though I posted this here, but I was on the wrong site.
Just changed out the springs to Mopar Lowering, and added a Hotchkiss front and rear sway bar, strut tower brace......needed an alignment, and the camber can't be adjusted enough to get it perfect.
What parts are my next step in curing this issue and further address the suspension???
It rides phenomenal......so much better with the springs and sway bars, highway exits I used to brake into doing 50, I find I no longer need to touch the brakes. Flat, flat, flat, no more body leaning.
$300ish for the front and $120 ($60 per side) for the rear..
my camber is dead on 0.0 with 3" drop on TEIN coilovers and hotchkis sways..
might look into the Bwoody Sway bar end links as well as the hotchkis sway might end up bending your OEM end links (especially the rear). you need to get some high strength washers for the Bwoody end links though to avoid cutting into the bushings, they don't supply them, PM MattRobertson on this forum he can tell you specifics.

Did you swap out the springs yourself. If so how was it?
Negative, some things I will try, springs isn't one.
There is a Meineke down the street, I have a 15 year relationship with the owner, for the install of the springs, strut tower brace, sway bars and alignment he charged me $100.....I handed over another $100 and told him to buy lunch for all the guys.
I'm spoiled, install of the new Corsa catback.....$100.
Maxxed out the camber adjustments with what is there, so pursuing a fix, which Mr Incredible seems to have provided.
I think the Hotchkiss sways was the best addition for me.... combined with the KW V2's and the SPC Camber kit all around I have zero body roll and great control. New rack/pinion (complete) seems to be tighter than the original, was covered under extended warranty and saved me since I was in the process of replacing the tie rod ends. (Car has 34k and only driven nice days on occasion).
I have a race shop in Austin TX, Soulspeed Performance that I have do all my suspension work. This time, the former Lotus guy put on an alignment that works neutral to almost oversteer. No play and it goes immediately where its pointed. makes me wonder if its even MY chrysler.
I'll have to look up the end links.. thanks MR I. Mine haven't bent, but look bad with the bushes 'cracking' and are probably next to be replaced. Plus, I like to just sink cash into the car.
I will say.... on bad roads I wish I had the stock suspension..... so i stay the F off of bad roads. LOL
For the OP, maybe add some sport shocks or adjustable coilovers. Not sure about how much bumpsteer correction from Pedders would do, but I am intrigued and that might be my next step.

I hear alot about "Pedders" and "Coil Overs", I ain't gonna lie, I ain't got much of a clue about Coil Overs, and I wonder how much a set of Pedders is going to help, I only just cracked 25K on the car.
