I sent this message to there "support" email
I've edited it here to make sense (changed your site to this site, and so on...)
It made it easier to post my question here
So, has anyone done this, know about someone, help someone, or know enough to help me threw it?

I've been looking for replacement struts for my 2004 GTP Comp-G with about 80k miles.

Before last night I was at a loss, and about to order GM Replacements...
A friend of mine online, Bill Lemke, sent me a link to a site:
Control Arms (Pair)
I didn't know this was a possibility for my car.
I was trying to figure out if I could weld the end link supports to a strut without damaging it...
I've been looking around this site trying to figure out what parts I need and what parts I don't.
[*] I need struts, looking at the 2 KYB offerings that site has.[*] I think I need springs, so planning on lowering the car a bit.
I have a trailer hitch I use to take gear to the track & pick-up things from the hardware store
I also use my car for work, so the trunk gets loaded with tools 3-5 days a week (full)
I'm married with children, my car is the grocery getter. (Wife Mustang doesn't do well in roominess)[*] I'm unsure if I need, or can even use Shortened Dog bones, I have PaceSetter Headers.[*] My car has a problem with a speed sensor, warning me to check multiple systems, making me feel I need to replace a hub or 2.
Systems include; Anti-lock, Variable-Assist Steering, Traction Control, Stability, & Brake[*] I want to be happy with the end product, don't want a "pogo effect", but don't want to over-do-it.[*] Since I tow, I want to make sure I take care of the rear end[*] Since I goto the 1/4 mile track I want to be mindful of helping with my 60' times.
Here's where the questions comes in...
What parts do I need?
What parts give me other parts so I don't buy duplicates?
Are there parts I'll need to steal from my struts?
Are there parts I'll need to buy that they aren't offering?
What is the best way for me to decide on what route to go on each part of this replacement? (3 spring offerings & 2 strut offerings)
If I buy all the parts from this site, can they be set-up as "Quick Struts" so I can install myself then get my alignment?
How successful have '04+ guys been with this set-up?
--End--
So, any thought? My 1st thoughts were to weld a bracket to a set of struts to mount my end-links on.
Thanks for looking, and look forward to everyone's ideas!
