Matty's first 1st Gen

I'm interested in changing my bushings. I'm wondering which sets i should buy first, that will yield the greatest improvements. I'm thinking my sway bar bushings first, am i on the right track. I was gonna order them from mazdatrix, unless anyones knows a better place. Thanks, Matt

The cheapest way to go is directly from Energy Suspensions (not sure of the url). I did a lot of looking when I started on my bushings, and it was a good bit cheaper to get them direct than through Mazdatrix or VB.

Grab yourself the sway bar endlinks, sway bar frame bushings, the strut/tension rod bushings, and, if you want to go all the way, the front control arm bushings. For the rear, get the watts links bushings, the sway bar endlinks, and sway bar frame bushings. It's a pretty cheap endevour, honestly, especially to do the front end. Although, in terms of which you should do first, I'd say that it depends greatly on the condition of all the existing bushings. If the front bushings are in great shape, but the rear control arms and whatnot are all rotted away, then I'd be buying new control arms first. If the rear is in decent shape, though, then I'd start with the front and rear sway bar bushings and then go from there.

Thanks for the input, Victoria British is pretty reasonable

No, victoria british isn't. Summit sells the same parts for a lot cheaper. Just go to mazdatrix's website and get the part numbers, then look them up on Summit and save yourself $40-50.

I have an extra set of Poly Strut tension rod bushings that I would be happy to get rid of. I will let them go for $25 CAD. And it wont cost you any duty or tax.....those will kill you (they did me!!!).
