Front end.
Ok, my below listed vahicle is up in the air. The front suspension is all taken appart and cleaned. I have got all energy suspension bushings on their way. I have stock wagon springs for the front (432 lbs). Moog ball joints. Any recomendations on shocks, swaybar, or anything else??

you've already got the wagon front sway bar, not really much else to upgrade to. I'd suggest the ES poly endlinks, or the standard replacement ones which also have a poly-like bushing. Shocks are your preference. I have kyb gr2 shocks, they're not harsh. If you want a bit firmer, the kyb gr2 police ones are cheap and decent.
are you replacing the tie rods, pitman arm, or idler arm?86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

Hey, Hey, I used to be a big time chevy man. I have built many many 350's and 383 strokers. Lets just say I got tired of some things. For exmple, cars with modular engines and 302's sounding better, and kicking my ass on the street. For this reason I am sticking with the 302. Most people hate Chevy just because they own a Ford. Most people hate Fords because they own a chevy and just want to talk shit. I have been on both sides of the fence. I love the 302, but I hate Ford transmissions. Thats how it goes. Ford makes a better rear end though. Thats the name of the game. Go with the lesser of all evils.Vehicle: 1965 Pontiac Catalina (fastback 2+2)
