I ended up deviating from the plan. Some ball joint boots were already torn, I accidentally tore some with the pickle fork. Just replaced everything.

Febi Bilstein for coffin arms, front control arms, rear strut mount
TRW rear toe arms, sway bar links, tuning forks
Lemforder front strut mounts/bearings
"OEM" brand bump stops

Things I wish I did different - wish I got camber adjustable coffin arms for the front.

Front I'm maxed at -0.5 one side and -0.75 the other side.

I struggled getting rear toe where I wanted. It was stuck negative with the eccentrics all the way out. More negative camber brought it to where I wanted. I think I'm somewhere around -1 in the rear (was trying to match or run a little less than the front).

So with adjustable arms I could get the front to -2 and match the rear. Then there's enough negative camber to get toe in zone.

I got 1mm toe out each side front and 1mm toe in each side rear. Car drives great!
