Bushing Questions from a Newb Sorry guys I am a very busy person and I look around but don't have the time to find all my answers on my own. I hope you can help out!
I have bad problem with my bushing, I live in PR and the roads are terrible, I just bought a 99 trans am WS6 and all the bushing are shot. At least it seems like it. I have replaced the motor mounts and trans mounts that were broken, and still need to replace all the bushing that make my ride sound like a train while going down the crappy streets of PR.
I am going to order all i need from summitracing, there are no local shops with these parts, so I want to get it right the first time.
I have a list so far, please let me know if it's right!
Front control arm, Upper and lower - PTP-7-227
Rear control arm. - PTP-7-226
Sway front 32mm. - PTP-7-1137
Sway rear 19mm. - PTP-7-1129
End links x2 - PTP-19-409
Am I missing anything that will make a big difference?
I have springs but they are lower, not sure if i want use them. Shocks are new.
Thanks again for helping a bother with little time. Sorry for my english.

This will make things easy:

What kind of shocks do you have?
Do NOT install lowering springs if ride quality is your #1 concern, you want good shocks (not oem replacements) + new rubber bushings, stock sized wheels/tires with a softer side wall tire for best ride.
