Default Suspension Inquiry

Hello CL,

I am looking for the smoothest ride possible for my 92 SC. I do not care for sporty cornering or anything of that nature. Would coilovers be the only change? What is of bushings that I constantly hear about. I appreciate all of the members advice and time. Thanks!

Smoothest ride is probably the oem suspension. Bushings that usually go bad are the steering rack bushings and the front lower control arm bushings.

Don't forget front sway bar bushings. Mine were in worse shape the the steering rack bushings.

Diazen makes all matter of bushings and TM engineering sells them. They're polyurethane so you might feel more bumps but the price is so good, they're readily available and they last so much longer its hardly worth going with any other alternative.

But as a general rule the front lower control arm bushings or LCA bushings go bad first and cause the worst symptoms.
