my car feels all clunkny going over little bumps or cracks in the road it's noisy and just fells like sh....
i replaced the shocks thinking it would fix the problem but it only helped it a little. car has 166,000 miles
would replacing the bushings help out or what would you guys recommend. my rear dif is leaking a too would that be any culprit to it as well? thanks:D

What wheels are you using? Are you lowered? If so, which springs?

I'd have my suspension components checked out. Upper/lower control arms, bushings, look to see if springs arent cracked., etc etc.

You notice anyhting in the back?

If you havent replaced the front lower control arm bushings they are probably destroyed. I just replaced mine at 83,000 miles and they looked like if a dog tore the crap out of them.

LCA bushings, engine mounts.

check those and replace if necessary.
