Suggestions for a suspension overhaul for 94 LS

My wife's 94 LS with 160K miles on the original components has shown it's wear. The creaks, rattles, and pops over just about every terrain. This causes the car to wander a bit on the freeway and makes for a scary ride. The shocks and springs were replaced about 60K miles ago with KYB AGX and H&R OE springs.

I expect the tie rods, ball joints, wheel bearings, and various bushings need replacing. Any suggestions on a list of commonly replaced parts and if there are aftermarket manufacturers who produce better and cheaper parts relative to OEM. We've set our budget for $400 and have been looking on eBay. Any input will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Kevin

Well without any input, I decided to try the Energy Suspension bushing kit. It seems to be much cheaper than the OEM parts. My only concern is that the polyurethane will squeak and wear prematurely. My experience with poly bushings has been pretty good but I've been warned that poly isn't a long-lasting material for pivotal bushings.

for the upper ball joints you could go with a camber kit that replaces the ball joints. a 400 budget isnt much especially when an alignment is about 70. i'd take it some where and get it diagnosed before replacing random parts.
