Talking Just Ordered Bilsteins and Bushings

I just ordered my Bilsteins. I got all 4 for $286.64 shipped from shockwharehouse.com (BTW, discount code LOCAL0106 is $10 off). I also ordered the Polyurethane Anti-Sway kit from Wheelers Off-Road (www.wheelersoffroad.com/4runswaykit.htm) since mine are looking a little worn. The only other thing I was thinking was that I should call them back and also order the Poly Steering Rack Bushing kit (www.wheelersoffroad.com/4runnerrackbushkit.htm). Can you guys for see anything else I should get while I'm putting in all the labor? I get a lot (!) of shimming and shaking on any sort of road that is not perfect. I just hope all this work is going to help that a lot, I've already replaced the wheels and tires with the 2000 Limited ones.

I've got them all. Bilsteins, love them. Poly swaybar mounts and end bushings, love them. Universal poly end bushings on the rear sway. But the first thing I did about 5 years ago was to install the Daystar poly steering rack mounts. They can be difficult to install but well worth it. My 4runner would get pulled all over the road, truck ruts, and at times scarry. I have since had to replace my rack. I pulled out the new rubber and reused my polys. They were still like new.

That's sounds like a great endorsement for me to go ahead and order the poly bushings for the steer rack at the same time.
