Seeking Recommendations on Suspension Parts

I recommend anything sold by Maximum Motorsports.

How about Griggs???

WAY back when I had my suspension made over, I added the poly bushings. The ride was a bit harsh and unforgiving (hey, I loved it, but my passengers never did). I had the subframes and lower chassis bar installed, along with performance struts, shocks, and springs. The entire combination was ultratight.

If I could go back, I would keep the rubber bushings. That little bit of cushion makes a difference.

Now we're talking about the top two camps here. I don't think the quality can be better than MM, and price wise the MM sport box, (that I have) is less than the Griggs Street fighter box. But I'm just say'n :) Griggs is good too.

Only think I changed so far is struts. Went with adjustables, but I set them on super stiff and left them.

Someone once told me poly bushings squeek. Have you had that problem??

did poly all around, got the poly-graphite kit from PST, good stuff. New ball joints, KYB struts, inner & outer tie rods... nice tight ride. mkl '86 Capri 5.0 5 spd

I agree MM has good stuff. But been reading lots of complaints -- squeaking & they transmit too much stress to other parts -- about poly bushings. I'm leaning hard towards new factory rubber pieces.

What brand of poly and did you get any squeaking?

Ditto here, so far. I went with Koni adjustables -- just installed my second set on this car. I dial the rears to soft and leave them, but play around with the firmness of the fronts from time to time.

Wow. 10 years ago... I ordered everything from Brothers Performance in their BBK Stage III suspension package. Polyurethane bushings were fairly generic, as I recall. But, no, never got any squeaks.
