at this point the car drives like it should. it doesn't dart around in ruts or wet pavement. doesn't pull either way. and just coasts forever. I'm thinking that I am going to hold off on the alignment till I'm ready for new tires. I'm also considering replacing the ball-joint, Control-arm, and bushings on the drivers side just so its done and I don't have to worry about those parts.

I have done a tad of lightening (Removed the rear seat and seat belts) The previous owner did a tad of lightening (In the form of not replacing wheel well liners, fender braces etc while doing other work). I keep an eye open for stuff to remove but 1) its not high on my priority list (I'm aiming more for hwy milage than in town) and 2) Its my work car. I drive it almost every day, so whatever "Luxeries" are in the car (Heater, carpet,radio, etc) are probably going to stay.

thank you for the wonderful input!
