Default Suspension kits

Ok, I'm redoing my subframe/suspension area (rubber, bushing, etc.) and I'm curious about some things. Basically, I need all the rubber and ordering it through Mazda is expensive as hell. I've looked at kits such as Energy Suspension but I'm not sure which pieces they can be substituted for.

Mazdatrix has quite a few kits (which I've emailed them about and have yet to hear back).

Anti-Sway Bar Bushing Sets
- One set needed to fit the Front bar. 24mm bar only.
- One set needed to fit Rear bar (14mm bar only)

Front or Rear Sway-Bar End Link Bushings
These are pressed into the stock links (86-88 only) to replace the factory rubber bushings. One set needed per end of car.

Front Lower Control Arm Bushing Kit (86-92)
This is a really good kit that contains the bushings needed for the front and the rear pivots of the front control arm. The inner diameter has the "barb" shape to conform to the OEM arm. Complete with the needed steel sleeves and bushings to do both arms.
- Front Lower Control Arm Bushing Kit
- Front Lower Control Arm Bracket

Rear Lower Control Arm Bushing Kit
This kit does the front pivots of the rear lower swing arm. Complete with bushings and sleeves to do both arms.

HYPER-FLEX SYSTEM Complete Master Bushing Set (Energy Suspension):
- Front and rear control arm bushings
- Front and rear sway bar bushings
- Ball joint boots
- Tie rod end boots

Are you really gonna make us look at the FSM so we can understand that? :P

When I did my suspension I bought the springs(eibach), sways(eibach), strut top mounts(Tokico), and struts(Tokico HP) off of ebay. I got the rest of the small rubber parts from the dealer except for the boots which I got from some other web vendor. I also got the front and rear control arm bushings(energy) off of ebay and I got all my drivetrain mounts from Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda. Those were the cheapest places I could find to get those parts, I hope that helps.
