That depends on what you mean by "proper". What's going to happen is the shocks
will actually be required to do the damping they're designed to do, instead of
having all the friction in the control arm bushings do it. You're going to get a
lot better drivability by reducing the friction in the suspension bearings,
simply because it doesn't take nearly as large a whack to get the control arms
moving. You might find that you can go up significantly in spring rate and still
get a reasonable ride, plus a lot less body roll, but at least now you'll be
able
to make small changes and see a measurable improvement, instead of just having
the change be overwhelmed by the suspension friction.
