Default What's the best rear suspension rebuild kit?

Just asking all the peeps who have rebuilt the rear suspension bushings and parts what's the best route. Years of drag racing and auto crossing have made my c4 a road wanderer. I did replace the all the front bushings,ball joints and unibearings but it still wiggles on the road. So I checked the back wheels and both have lots of play. So I'm thinking I found the culprit. I'm also running 315,s on the back which is a a lot more stress?

I put the banski rods with spherical rod ends on and was surprised how much they improved the handling and planted rear end

they eliminate the bushings and really free up rear suspension travel by removing the "stiction" of the factory bearings. rear tracks much truer now with less wheel hop on hard acceleration

I also have coil overs which helps

check em out.
