yes, i would do the diff bushing after, in stages, so you can appreciate the improvements.

keep in mind though that if you get full replacements, the crossmember will have to come down completly or some trickery will be required to get the old ones out (a press is required)

so best get inserts.

also if doing yourself, do take care in installing the crossmember inserts because it is very easy to mis-align and strip the threads, then you'll be really fucked.


after that i'd go for the engine and transmission mounts, which you should do in pairs, because stiffening one puts undue stress on the other.


after that you can do sphearical top hats (camber plates) for the front

after that you can start looking into upgrading the bushings on things like control arms.. but that's big money (cuz you need to disassemble, press, etc etc)
