Planning on getting new struts, and want to put on camber bolts at the same time. What else would be good to replace in the car that wouldn't take more than a day or two which usually requires an alignment?

I was thinking Poly bushings - not sure what specific ones...

Check your tie-rods front and rear as well, if they have any play in them the car will not align properly.

Soak all adjustable links, nuts & bolts with WD40. That brings aligning time down from 2 days to 1 day.

And you'll make some friends too!
