Hi Dave,

Thank you for your extensive list of checks.

To be honest, I don't think there is anything wrong with the brakes.

Like you, I suspect something in the suspension, especially because the only bushings I have changed in 28 years are the ones that come with new tie rods and the IPD front sway bar, as they are part of the kit they supply.

The front struts are still the original.

Now, I wanted to go through this process to change all the bushings anyway, but that will happen in the spring, as it is too cold now to work in my garage, even with the heater.

My question to you:

IPD sells those front suspension bushing kits, but I am not sure if the blue bushings are better than the genuine black rubber. Maybe they are, but I suspect they will not last long.

Do you have any personal experience with those blue bushings? Has anyone else in this forum used them?

Thank you!
Alex
