Going to focus on the bushings now, and once that's taken care of, start saving for coils. I don't think it's worth it to throw money I don't have on another set of stock suspension. At least until I can count the spring coils and see why it's leaning.
I have ebayed rear 'quick' struts on my corolla, ~20k miles on them, no problems. The auction was for monroes at a cheap price, and I would guess they were not monroe brand, just has the part number matching for monroe. I have some old (80s) shocks that are the same setup, monroe part number, but are another brand.
