Colecatz,

Not really package......but most sites list them all..

I have my DIY threads on bushing replacements and steel press tools needed, along with explanation in the suspension 101 sticky..Also, me and acidjake75 have everything needed if you need help doing them...

hands down check:
-front lower translink - inner(at k member) and outer(front coilover mount point) - there are two bushings in the translink.
-front lower compression rod bushings
-then rear diff bushings
-rear shock to spindle bushing
-subframe bushings if doing diff bushings
- etc...

It's really hard to put together packages persay because different bushings are failing at different time periods in each and everyone's vehicles. With that said we offer all the major brands that offer bushings for our vehicles (Whiteline, SPL, Moonface Racing, Ikeya Formula, etc.) and have installed most of them in our own personal cars here at the shop so if you need some assistance in purchasing some bushings give us a shout.

Thanks Jason,

Unfortunately, I'm in an apartment complex that is kinda snooty about working on your car in the car park so anything I get done has to be else where.

I'm some what knowledgable about most areas of the car, EXCEPT the suspension. What got me looking through here, is.... my 03 at 73k.... there rear end is bouncing like crazy, over a single rise in the highway where it should normally settle nicely after one...(hmmm, wavelength if you will?)... mine just bounces up and down 3-4 times. It started like someone flipped a switch, it's like the rear suspension loads up at the bottom of the rise and tries to jettison my *** off the planet when it unloads at the crest. It's not safe and I've slowed way day down now. My limited knowledge makes me think my JIC's are done and need rebuilt.

but, I'm also seeing a different issue in that, There is a section of east bound 121 right passed IH 35 where there are what I could only describe as moguls, you don't see them but transversing them in my car definitly lets you know they are there as the car will literally skip side to side like a cellphone vibrating on a table... keeping the wheel straight the car will true itself but it's freaky to say the least. With hands on the wheel you'd swear there were instances where there might be one wheel on the ground.

I'm going to get my JIC's rebuilt as soon as I find a stock setup to slap under it to minimize downtime. Would it be ignorant to a suggestion of bushings that are likely done or will be soon and just blindly replace? if it going to happen sooner or later

don't know if it helps, but suspension wise I have JIC FLTA2 coilovers, JIC rear tractions bars, and JIC rear camber kit all with 73k miles and everything else suspension wise is stock.

Sorry for the long post, I'm playing catch up on maintenance after having a babygirl over the past year and everything's been hectic si I ramble from time to time.

@kwame, Thanks for the reply, I'll hollar at ya when I figure out wtf I need.
Thanks in advance.

 

okay the two issues you posted..

1 - wavelenght rear sounds like jic shock portion are done...with the car parked, push down on the hatch and see how it reacts...get someone else to help you...odds are you can repeat it.

2. the side to side wiggle your talking about - I have experience that exact explaination! and if im right its the translink bushing blown...look under your car and see if the trasnlink lower control arm is pushed to one side
