Thanks for your reply...I feel certain that ALL the suspension components are rather tired after 300K miles. I will look for the turbo sway bars next time I hit a junkyard, as I am sure that they will go a long way towards firming things up some, but i think my greatest need for now is going to be the bushings. Every bump i hit, I can hear the control arms clunking, and the car has a very vague and imprecise feel (very similar to the way my Datsun felt before I entirely rebuilt the suspension in it).
