Just installed: Pillows and Suspension!!! WOW!
So, I just installed new suspenion and all 6 new pillowballs in the rear. HOLY COW what a difference in ride. Feels like a brand new car. All 6 pillows were completely eaten out and basically the nylon was hollowed out. I did Tokicko Illumina 5 way adjustables and PFS comfort springs. Dropped the car about 3/4" in the front and 1" ni the rear. Now it doesn't squeak anymore when I get in and out of it either. This is a MUST do of course for anyone...onto paint and wheels now... Oh, of course I want a Garfinkle Engine brace now...

I went with OEM pillows. I didn't really research any other options. They were 49.00/each, so kinda pricey. I did the dust covers too of course. RXtacy is right, there really isn't any way to improve them since they are a metal bushing that encases a bearing which is surrounded by a hard nylon material.
