freshen up suspension

hey all, i plan on getting gr-2 and vogtlands, but what other suspension components do i need? i thought about getting bigger sway bars, but im more worried about ball joints and bushings. which ones need to be replaced around 100k miles? i hate that stock doesnt have grease points, and car is feeling like its loosening up nowadays. i prefer poly bushings!! anyone rocking prothanes or energy suspension stuff?
 


im switching my swaybars and will order a set of energy suspension brackets and bushings (gotta measure the bar first, couldnt find any data on SLP SB's). I know people who run Energy Suspension stuff and theyre pretty happy.

Get better trailing arms, stock ones are garbage.
 
trailing arms are the only things that is going to make a big difference besides lowering the car.
 
these are great, but what about stiffer ball joints, if i have to replace them anyways with 100k miles on them? and other bushings? just get better stuff for sway bars and new trailing arms...sounds like a plan then
 
i am having the hardest time trying to find dogbone inserts for the small end now. i found the giant blocks of poly, but cant find the small end inserts now...
 


awesome! thats the ones. thanks guys! yeah i might be doing sways and trailing arms, but for now i just need motor mounts (getting really mushy on shifts on me) and shocks/springs. i will get sway bars and the fixins later though.
