Benefit of Dynamic Strut Rod (and other Suspension Q’s)

Unfortunately, I feel the same about new parts. I'm sure decent stuff is available through PST and Firm Feel though. Luckily, I have all the good stuff I need in my stash. I felt the Poygraphite bushings were fine, except the lower control arm bushing. I prefer the good rubber bushing now. Everybody is different what they want and that also changes with time and usage.

Agreed. You're lucky to have a good stash! I got into the a-body game late, and have to deal with what I can get today, which is not much (when it comes to OEM style and quality parts).

I'm a fan of "if it works, it works". I think most things can be made to work, but sometimes the juice ain't worth the squeeze. $700 shocks to make $40 bushings feel OEM-like isn't a great route for everyone. My future plans are far more big-tire and handling oriented, and so it made sense for me.
