Installed the front kit this weekend(Front & Rear controll arm bushings and sway bar endlink bushings) and the ride is a bit more stiffer but i really like it. gain a bunch of road feel now from the less flexing of the poly's. easy to install if you have a press( and what i means by this is you need the press to remove the old ones, or be carefull when sawzall'n them off as another board member said). i removed both controll arms from the car, and pressed all of the old bushings out. the poly kit comes with its own white lithium type grease packets and the bushings press right on without the aid of hand tools.. highly recommend them if you're in the market for upgraded bushings.

the only part of the kit that i didnt get to was the panhard rod bushings. those need to be pressed out and the new ones pressed in.

http://www.evol-art.com/suspension_brak ... hings.html to be exact.

I goofed on the Full Kit pricing. It's $95 for a Full Kit, $105 for a Full Kit w/Rear Swaybar. I just fixed the site but sometimes it takes a bit for the server to update.
