I'm going to be getting my new KYB struts in soon and I was wondering what bushings, other than the ones dealing with the swaybar, should I replace as well?

I've looked under the car real good today and after pricing out all the bushings that's just too much $ involved to replace all those bushings. If I were to order all the bushings for the trailing arms and lateral links it'll be over $ in little pieces of rubber.

Does anyone know of a cheaper alternative? I'm not looking to increase the performance of the car with all the rust on it so stock rubber is good enough for me.

You could look at poly bushing kits....they may actually be cheaper than getting the stock rubber and the split poly bushings are a HELL of a lot easier to install than the rubber bushings.

Know anyone that makes a good kit or am I going to have to get all the dimensions the hard way?

Yes, Turn in Concepts has a kit for the rear end in two versions. One is race hardness 95A poly and they also have a softer "street version" which is less expensive and more comfortable.

The nice thing about these is installation. The hard part is just getting the old ones out, but they at least slide in place by hand.

And I am a TIC dealer btw.

For the front end, the big one at the rear of the front control arm is the most important thing to replace. Usually people replace the whole housing and bushing with an aftermarket part like a Whiteline ALK. They also make replacement poly for them (for about $100), or you could shop for a used set that someone took off their newer car.
