yea thats the one i was trying to compare to the slp but AustinGTP was reffering to a different kit and i wasnt sure where to find that one at? so is there any difference besides the price of the GMPP and the SLP sway bars?

ZZP's kit only comes with the front and rear sway bars. The GMPP handling upgrade kit comes with front and rear sway bars, tubular trailing arms (not shown) and a front STB (extra bar shown). I'd stick with the full GMPP handling kit.

i must have looked over hercmans' response about the mounts. i am to assume that new oem mounts will be fine, and will cause no problems, so i dont have to go with a different brand (which will undoubtedly cost more)?

Big Bump.
well, the "fit hit the shan" and i havent had any time to work on this. i might have an open weekend coming up and i was wondering if these mounts would suffice.
do these work?
Fronts: what are the differences? one is considerably more expensive. also are both sides (left/right) the same,swappable? http://www.autozone.com/R,APP1178094/vehicleId,2396102/initialAction,partProductDetail/store,1783/partType,01047/shopping/partProductDetail.htm
http://www.autozone.com/R,APP1178095/vehicleId,2396102/initialAction,partProductDetail/store,1783/partType,01047/shopping/partProductDetail.htm
Rears: Left http://www.autozone.com/R,APP1179064/vehicleId,2396102/initialAction,partProductDetail/store,1783/partType,01048/shopping/partProductDetail.htm Right http://www.autozone.com/R,APP1179066/vehicleId,2396102/initialAction,partProductDetail/store,1783/partType,01048/shopping/partProductDetail.htm
now i'm confused because for the rear mounts they have them specified for which side (right rear, left rear) but not for the front mounts. why is that?
holy crap. i just want to get this done and over with. thanks for all of your help and expertise

I can't see the mounts you posted, but yes the fronts are the same, and the rears are left and right specific. It has to do with the shape of the mount plate, in relation to the stud pattern. It will make sense to you, once you remove the old ones... The rears should be marked left and right, so don't get discouraged.
