I was hoping to provide a good article on the topic, but can't find it now.

I coated them all. Used everything I had. they don't squeak, yet.
I just picked up a stock 98 vs re-done 97
when I say cold I mean 15 F or lower
98 stock still has OEM shocks/springs/mounts rides nice even when cold.
97 redo has eibach and all poly, when cold it rides like a board.
a lot of variables could contribute to this... links, bushings... so it's hard to tell I guess really.
all the engineering docs rave up and down about poly, and how it's so much better in every way. The more poly I use the less I like it.
