Some people suggested I also replace some link Bushings in front to reduce steering wobble. With 108k miles thats probably a good Idea. How are the AB Blue Bushing Kits. Is the Blue the Soft one that is similar to rubber? is $200 a good price for a complete set?
Also, what bushings require a press to remove out of their factory location? Do any of the Blue Bushings require pressing in? Any noice or squeaking?
Thanks

Poly- Blue are the soft ones, But I find them to be a little stiffer than the stock rubber
$200 is ok. I paid 219 2yrs back from AB
Removal I can't help you there, When I installed mine I purchased new arms from RT. I heard you can sawzall them out.
Installation Is very easy
If I ever redo them I would go rubber.
Good luck |

Anyone else have some experience to share with Rubber vs Poly Blue Bushings from AB? I drive mostly on the road but dont want to lose wheel travel by converting. However, With 20k miles per year on Pavement it would be nice to firm up everything a bit.
Just wanting more Opinions on both options and instalation suggestions. WHat Facotory bushings need to be pressed in/out?
Thanks
