New shims for the tops of the springs and a fresh set of Bilstein HD's
up front otherwise the H&R springs overwhelm the stock/worn out dampers.

Also, make SURE the rest of your suspension componentry is in tip top
shape. No point in putting springs in if the control arms/guide rod/tie
rods, etc, etc, etc are not in Good condition.
