Suspension talky talky

Talk to me about suspension. Looking to stay on stock springs/struts but I want to stiffen it up. Who sells inserts for the control arms and new balljoints? Good balljoints, not the $12 crap at autozone.

Check out Energy Suspension for the bushings...

And Moog makes halfway decent ball joints. Searching will be your friend

ES is the way to go to stiffen things up bushing wise.

If you want stiffer struts/springs get some GR2's and some 5spd SE springs.

The springs/struts are all new so I'm going to leave those as is. Who sells the es bushings? I thought I read some people use another company, white something?

I have yet to see a vendor that is commonly used on this forum.

But which brand of strut/shock are they?

Some, Tokico Blues for example are very soft and no matter what you do to the suspension you'll always have a softer ride.
