Reason for asking is that I may do it in the future.
I didn't notice much of a harshness difference between my old worn out bushings and the new poly bushings. The front end certainly felt much more tightened up after I did this work. The project included ball joints and control arms as well.
My vehicle has Bilstein HD shocks with the original springs/pad combination. In my opinion, choice in shock absorbers will give you the biggest changes between ride feel. I will most likely use the regular Bilsteins or the Comforts when I change shocks again.
