I'll be swapping my eibach springs and bilstein shocks from the old motor to the new, just wondered if there is anything else worth changing while I'm there. I'll do the rear shock mounts I think. any suggestions appreciated...

Anti roll bar links if theyre looking even slightly worn, same goes for the arb bushes and clamps... The advise is to go to the dealer for rubber bits and after seeing 'budget' front arms last a matter of weeks on a mates fiesta it's advice that I follow.
