    I need new spring perch bushings so I figure I'll go the whole hog and get all the suspension bushings for the car replaced with the best available. Who's got em and how much? Any negative experiences? I want maximum handling out of my Mav and don't care how squeaky they are, the engine will drown their noise out anyway :)

    Also want a bigger front, and hell I'd like any kind of rear sway bar. I remember a thread recently discussing a 1" bar for Mavericks....

    id recomend puting polyurithane bushings in the rear leaf springs, and rubber in the front strut rod busings, if polyurithane is used on the strut rods they end up brakeing because of the stiffness.
