Hi,

I have a 1995 GT convertible. I was told it can not be properly aligned since ... okay I forgot the name of the part that was bad, I was told two years ago. It may have been an upper or lower something or another, but not sure.

Anyway, I am wanting to fix / renew the entire suspension instead of just one part, and then another going bad in a few months.

But really, not an expert mechanic. I may hire a local mech to install the parts. But what parts?


I have seen polyurethane kits, it that all I need? Which kit?


Pretend it was your car, you are on a budget, you had an old car that was not very well taken care of...ever... and now you want to renew the suspension. How would you go about it? What kits or parts need to be replaced?

I know this is an open ended request, I am looking for good ideas.


Thank you in advance.

I found a couple of kits. One from Detroit axle

and one from energy suspension

Anyone know either company?

Any thoughts on either kit?

I am not entirely sure exactly what each kit really is. The Detroit one seems more... complete?


The Detroit one seems to be oem type rubber and it also seems more complete.

Anything missing from either kit that you think I would need?
