Anybody know where i can get poly spring insulators fast and not too expensive. I'm gonna call Ford tomorrow but I doubt they have poly ones.

I want them for the front and rear

Any help would be great

Thanks

I see you are in PA, so I think the above is correct. Summit would be your best bet for fast. Not sure how cheap though.

If you want the red ones, make sure you specify that. A lot of people want red and end up with black. Just in case you want to have a certain color.

I got mine from discount direct. One of their warehouses is local though so they delivered them the same day.

Why Poly? re-use the stockers if you are tight for $$...

poly's are cheap and when I pulled off my stockers they looked like they were pulled through a shredder.

I just went to PEP Boys out here in SoCal, and they stock the energy stuff. Don't know if they have one out there, but if they do, check it out.

I don't recall any rear sway bar bushings. The rear sway is bolted to the lower control arms. Your list is pretty complete.

well I'll check it out today with everything on the list i'm looking at 135.92 more then i wanted to pay but i knew it would be high beings i'm going with energy stuff. Like I told my dad this morning I'd rather replace it all now then just do some things and have them wear funny and have to replace that part again plus buy the other part that i didn't do in the first place. I just hope after all this money and work i'm putting into this thing it feels like i'm driving a cloud lol. People say just replacing my shock/struts it will feel a lot better then with all this it should be amazing

Well parts are ordered. I got an email saying they had a problem with my credit card but i called and i gave them a wrong number when i typed it in stupid 3 digit numer on the back of the card theres a strach right through the last number so i wasn't sure what it was. I called them up gave him the 2 options and he goes thats it that one works. They told me most of the stuff was coming form their place in ohio but my end links are coming from nevada no big deal ain't ready for the front stuff right now anyway. With only like 20 days left I don't think i'm getting it done for my florida trip which totally sucks but **** happens I guess, nothing ever happens the way i want it to with that car
