Default Basic Suspension Mods

I am looking to improve the ride on my 93.5 non turbo supra, it rides like a tank. It has 93K on it, but my Lifted Grand Cherokee rides better.

Any thoughts on some basic mods I could do, without spending crazy money?

Thanks

well, if u want budget springs
you can do with the eibach springs
its a nice set-up, gives u about 1.5 inch drop
gives u a bit better handling

Im not really looking to go much lower just smoother ride. Less clunking, if I could get part numbers and prices that would help.

HKS has a nice kit, but 2K is out of my range for now.

Your suspension should not be clunking. How many miles are on your Mkiv? Perhaps the bushings are worn out?

...or perhaps the last alignment shop you took it to did not sufficiently torque the control arm bolts? (Yes I've seen this happen before, on a friend's Supra).

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
