refreshing suspension
When i drive over something the front end of my car rattles like crazy, i did some inspection and all of the bushings are torn/abused. Ima just get it all over with. I already replaced the struts. Any other suggestions?
energy kit. not very expensive, very good upgrade. your bushings are probably all shot, struts arent going to help that. look into your ball joints, tie rod ends, etc. if you don't have access to the proper tools or the ability to press in bushings, you can buy aftermarket lca's with new bushings already installed.
Alot of people are going to hate on energy suspension, and tell you to go with hardrace. I personally got the energy suspension kit and for what it is, they make a night/day difference. The only thing im worried about is talks of them not lasting nearly as long.
If I had to do it over again, seeing as it was a -massive- pain in the *** swapping out all the bushings, I would go with the hard race kit for the peace-of-mind

Sure you'll good new bushings in some places but your leaving half of the old crappy ones in.
Poly tends to last long. Some enviroments are more freindly to them then others. Here in WA, they tend to last a good long time. But you have keep pulling them out, cleaning and lubing them. Thats a pain in the ***.
The hardrace/PIC kit, covers ALL the suspension bushings. You put them in and forgot about them, and they will out last ES very easily.
I'm not hating on ES, as I use there stuff, but poly is a pain, and it's not that great.
ALSO, what car, what year?
