Looking to replace/uprade a few bits

[ek_mo]

The upper ball joint boots have gone which caused my car to fail it's M.O.T. Other suspension bushes/parts are looking quite worn out too so I've decided it's time to replace/upgrade a few bits.

My Jordan is driven daily and it's lowered on Tein coilovers. I have the following energy suspension bushes which I bought a while ago:

Front control arm bushing set.
Front Shock bushing set.
Front 26mm ARB bushes.
Rear 13mm ARB bushes
Rear trailing arm bushes.
Steering rack bushes.
Ball joint and tie rod boots.
Front and rear coil spring isolators

These are stiff as f*** so I'm only planning on using the front and back arb bushes unless I'm better off buying OEM D bushes? Should I consider using any of the other bushes from the set? I don't mind a slightly stiff ride but nothing too harsh.

Other parts I want to buy:

Hardrace front Camber Arms - HARDRACE FRONT UPPER CAMBER KIT w/Hardened Rubber Honda CIVIC EK 6204 | eBay
Rear LCA's ( still unsure of which to get )
Blueprint front and back droplinks - Simauto

And other parts I'm considering changing:

Camber arms - To be able to adjust rear camber if I ever have to
Toe arms - For the sake of replacing the bushes

I also have this Whiteline rear camber kit gathering dust.
KCA371 Whiteline Caster/Camber Adjustment Kit - Control Arm for 96-00 Honda Civic at Andy's Auto Sport
I have no idea on how this even fits tbh. I'd fit it if it's a good kit and if I knew how it worked

All I'm after is a decent road set up, this is what I have in mind at the moment and I need you guys to point me in the right direction.

stiff bushings help, allows your suspension to do its work properly without deflecting. i use spherical bearings wherever i can and the difference is night and day.

You cant go wrong with cyberspeed camber arms front and rear for the price. The poly d bushings should be fine. Also replace the rear trailing arm bushings with oem or blueprint, that will greatly increase the feel of the rear of the car and stability.

Poly is OK to use anywhere where the bush only moves in one plane, so anything that simply rotates about it's axis is usually OK. Anything designed to move significantly in more than one plane, i.e. RTAs and front compliance bushings, are generally better off being rubber.

I wouldn't bother with the castor kit, it's nice to weight up the steering a bit but it's not really needed, the camber is the important bit and you'll get that from the camber arms.

Rear LCAs, aftermarket are just for show really, some new bushes in the original arms will be just as good, if not better as you'll actually get decent bushes in them that won't fail after a few months. Make sure you put them back on the right way up though. Don't laugh, it's an easy mistake to make and will make your car sit wonky!
