I have a 95 talon esi. I replaced my struts all around with KYB GR-2's
(almost stock equivelant) and I still have stock springs which are in great shape. I had replaced my struts because my ride was bumpy as heck. It felt like my car was going to break apart everytime I hit a bump. My ride is still horrible even with the new struts. Could I have a problem with the rubber bushings that are part of the stut assemply. I have inspected all the other suspensions componets (controls arms, etc.) and all move freely and appear in good shape. Any suggestions, any else encounter a similar problem?
 
If the lower control arms move freely (and the bushings are stock), then the bushings have ripped. We have vulcanized rubber bushings, which means that they are all, effectively, springs.
