    Cheer's, Did'nt bother with bushes or owt, every thing i took off was good for a 16 odd year old vehicle, did wonder about the ball joint/rubbers but after a clean up they were like new, the panard rod i did myself, just chopped it in half and found a short piece of thick walled steel tube that was a perfect fit inside the rod, bolted each end back on and measured the gap, wacked the rod in and kept trying it till it was right then welded it, this was done with the wheels on the deck (normal unladened ) long as you use the alloy spring seats you'll be ok, they fit perfectly with them on,

    Are you fitting the ball joint spacers? if so and depending on the size of em you may have to grind out some of the upper wishbone, the bit underneath, you'll see when ya offer the spacer up there, thats the only bit i did'nt like doing, you'll love the difference tho certainly improves the "stance" only prob is i nearly put my back out getting my leg up there and i did head butt the roof console hauling myself up, hurt like a sonovabitch, right on the soft bit on top (my head)
