ok, I'm getting myself geared up for going home from school and doing all of the fun rear suspension stuff I need to do. I am planning on replacing most of the busings, since they are mostly shot. I'd also like to put in some new shocks, I think. I have a few questions-
1. My car definitely rides low in the back, and when i have a few people in the back, it REALLY rides low. Is this almost all due to the control arm bushings? If not, would it be bad shocks, or could the springs have gone bad?
2. Is there a place where I could rent one of those home-made control arm bushing pusher-outer things? If anyone has one they'd like to sell, i'd be interested!
3. What other fun things should I check while I'm in the vicinity?

thanks so much again to all you folks...I sometimes feel like I don't post as many replies to others' questions as I ask questions...but I guess I'm just not such the expert as some of you....well, thanks again for any help!
