The coil spring pads don't make much difference. I took them completely out
on mine anyway.

Shock mounts might make a little difference but the shock studs have to be
able to change angle a bit due to the movement of the a-arms. On a race car,
maybe needed, but I doubt it on a street car.

OK, I'm not too knowledgeable about suspensions, but what about the
shock absorbers and coil spring pads?
