What is "the full bushing kit"?
Maybe you meant a full bushing kit?

Plenty of people have. A quick search will get you answers. In fact there is a thread comparing the Hardrace and Pic kits.

PIC or Hardrace. Energy suspension isn't a "full" kit.

I'm not too impressed with hard race stuff. I have a few bushings on my car and they seem "ok" The lower control arm compliance bushings came in a junk steel bracket so I put them into some stock ones. I will be reviewing the condition of them after a few seasons of use so i'll see if they held up. I honestly just like oem stuff for street cars.

Probably Hardrace or PIC. I only have personal experience with PIC however. I'm just not a fan of polyurethane.

OEM are good but expensive, since you usually have to buy whole arms.

Interested in results. OEM for the win, but sometimes I cant bring myself to pay those absurd prices lol. Then again, you get what you pay for.

Going OEM for bushings is damn near insane.

Some of the bushings can only be bought in the arms. $$$$
