I know Energy Suspension sells a bushing kit for the S chassis and up till now I was going to go that route. But, I see bigger and better things in the future and am now concidering getting adjustable suspension parts with pillow-ball mounts and that good stuff.

Two things I'm thinking of:
1: How friggen hard is it to change the bushings vs swapping adj parts on and having a shop align the car.
2: Price. "Depending-on" will probably sway me one way or the other.

I'm not looking for a "How To:" or a "this much" but instead, an "I've done _____ and _____ is what I think about it"

Toe links , Traction rods ect only come with metal bushings on one side , you still need bushings for the other side where they bolt to.

I just bought a Energy Suspension master set for $145 shipped from FRSport.com. Traction rods are useless unless your into drag racing plus you have to know how to adjust them, but toe links i might get later down the road. If you only get aftermarket arms , your spindle , RLCA and rear subframe with still have stock bushings in them.

it is not exactly and easy job. it is messy and time consuming but i have been told it is one of the best improvemnts you can make for the s chassis. Took me a total of 12 hours to change mine. and i didnt do it all at once. and i didnt do the swaybar bushings or endlinks. because i am gettign new ones with my suspension tech swaybars.

the only ones i didnt change were the RUCA's
because i got adjustable ones.
the only other adjustable part i might need is a toe rod depending on how low i dump my car but right now it doesnt need them.

you might as well get the kit and do it now.
then as you get adjustable peices you can install them.
