Thursday my car is going to get it's rear sway bar bushings replaced to stop the now infamos wobble sound many of us have had, and the Cv boots as well. i was wondering if i should have them replace the front sway bar bushings as well? My car has 115,000 on it now, and i was thinking mabey it would help the handling of the car? Anybody know if this is wise to do or just a waste of money? Also, anything else they should replace at this time that you guys can think of so i can get it donr at once?

carefull getting your bushings done. your sway bar links are probably seized and when you take them off, they're either gonna have to cut them off or they're gonna be stripped. In other words expect to buy new links. I would suggest you consider what you're paying in parts and labour and maybe consider getting a set of ST sway bars while things are taken apart.
