Questions front end
I have the engine out doing a rebuild. I had play in the steering box do i replace with new steering box or upgrade to the steeriods system. And second question do i just replace all the bushings up front or upgrade to a mono leaf spring system any one using that system does it really improve handling

my .02 I would go w/the steeriods system, new coil springs 550lbs & rear mono leaf 360lb, all new rubber bushings front & rear & four new bilstein shocks. Your C3 will handle like a C5

Your upgrade here will depend on how deep your wallet is. I have both steeroids and monoleaf and I would never change back. There is no question that there is a dramatic improvement in handling. I do find the ride a bit harsher because of where I have my monospring set. The nice thing about the monospring is that is adjustable for both ride and height. With this setup, the only other bushings you need to worry about will be the sway bar bushings and upper control arms unless you change those out as well.
