The only ones that fail regularly are the front bushes, rear very occasionaly but easy to spot by lookin at them.

Bottom ball joints are very strong, rarely any issues and if there is any you cna feel the play by jacking up and wiggling the front wheel in thr 6 and 12 Ocloc positions

Not massively different, most of you comfort comes from your tyres and suspension setup which is already stiffer
