Hi, y'all! I was hoping to collect some opinions on the subject of suspension. I am getting ready to replace my ball joints and tie rod ends, and at least the links and bushings to my sway bar--possibly replace the whole thing with something better than the original. My goal is to tighten up the whole suspension, make it perform better for tighter cornering and more responsiveness in demanding driving conditions. I'd like to be able to "feel" the car better, if that makes any sense. I might eventually upgrade the shocks and struts, too--they're about 5 years old.

I ran across a Website called IPD USA, specializing in Volvo parts. Has anyone had experience with this retailer? What brands and/or products might everyone reccommend for improving my suspension?
