I haven't installed the bushings yet, but I had the "knocking" problems on the old OEM BLOWN struts

Just in case, I am running KYB AGX on ST springs, can't go wrong with that combo, specially on the cost\price

I use KYB AGX adjustable shocks they are great ($410 @ k2rd.com)
Got the ST = Suspension Techniques springs that lowered the car 1" and I got the Energy Suspension polyurethane bushings on my car ($180 and $100 @ shox.com).
The car is rock solid on turns. The Polyurethane bushings did make the ride a little rougher though.. if you don't mind that... then I highly recomend them.

I say do something about the gov'mnt having the use of your 700 bucks and not paying you any interest for the last year. You need to adjust your tax form so they don't keep/use your money for free.
