    OK, so I just put in new Moog upper control arm bushings, ES Polyurethane endlinks, and ES polygraphite sway bar bushings, along with new bushings that run to the font bumper support. Along with that, we slapped in a new set of Monroe Sensa-Tracs in the front, and air shocks in the back.

    Ride and handling are 100% improved, although I still think I need new springs, as the car still seems to have a slight annoying lean to the right.

    Holds steady with no plowing in the turns, and it floats like a cruise ship on smooth waters, instead of a life raft in a hurricane. It feels a lot tighter, stiffer in the sense of more control, not stiff like a truck.

    I'm thinking of running the Moog springs in the back, and still looking for a decent set of front springs... maybe a little stiffer than OEM.
