Think I'll go with the control arms, panhard rod and some shocks, only sway bars i can find that are hollow cost almost 500 bucks for front and rear.

Sway bars aren't cheap, especially the front and rear sets as you already have seen. Another less costly option would be just to upgrade the bushing and endlinks with polyurethane replacements.

Cool, thanks again.
I will leave the sway bars alone for now.
For installing the panhard rod, control arms and shocks do i need to grease anything?
basic tools will install them? think my chiltons book has the method to do them, maybe not the panhard rod.

When I bought my components, the bushings already came pre-lubed, but I ended up filling them a little more after I installed them. Also, they recommend using a special silicone grease for the poly bushings and discourage against using petroleum based grease. I ordered a tube of the grease off of the Spohn website along with my parts.
