Some may argure that the 99 susp. is better, some say worse.   The 99 susp.
system is not SARC equipped,  the shocks are valved differently that the
SLO's though.  I say that the 99 will be the easiest to modufy susp. wise
and not have to play with wires and sensors.

If you get the tranny rebuilt be sure to get the torque converter done too.
'96-97s are the best IMHO.  '98s have speedo problems and the '99 is a
stripped version.  Though it nay be the lightest, even though it is lacking
in the suspension department.
