How to Smooth the ride with my 87 TRANS AM?

I want to get rid of the rough ride of my 87 trans am. I think I have the WS6 suspension on the car. Is there any way that I can make my have a better and smoother ride? I do not race the car! Basically I use it to cruise around town and travel from Mobile,AL to New Orleans for school. Can I change the springs, shocks,and sway bars to make the ride better? How about the suspension from a stock V6 / V8 Firebird? What is the Best way?

Thanks,
Ryan

springs and sway bars out of a v6 car will do the trick--I knew I should of saved the v6 **** off of my car. Mine didn't even have a rear sway bar from the factory.
