07mazda3i

My girlfriend has a 2007 Mazda3i 2.0. We brought the car in to the dealership to be looked at (suspension noise) and was told the front and rear links and bushings needed to be replaced here are the part numbers they gave us:

Front Links: BP4K-34-170D
Front Bushings: BP4K-24-156B

Rear Links: BP4K-28-156G
Rear Bushings: BP4K-28-170G

1. I found these sway bar links
Front: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...___#fragment-4

Rear: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...___#fragment-1

Anyone have any experience with these? or recommend others?


2. Are there any performance links/bushings? I heard energy suspension may make some intended for a ford, but also works on the mazda3 (not sure if this is just for the 2003).


3. I found these, but not keen on cutting the links, also not sure if these bushings only work on whiteline sway bars.

Any help would be appreciated.

#1 - make sure its not an engine mount
i'm suspicious that bushings would wear out, how many miles on the car?
What sort of noise do you notice?
Are the tires worn evenly?
Does it drive straight? - any shimmy or vibration at 55-70mph?
Have you changed shocks / struts?
