Pretty tedious work but a good overall outcome. They are the only company that I found that you can replace this bushing yourself and dont have to have a shop press out the old and in the new bushing. I never had a sqeak and still dont but before I would go through installing another set of these I would make sure that it's that bushing making all that noise before i replaced it. Stock rubber doesn't sqeak too often. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>imbroken</b> <br /><small>Member # 165</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,4,23,16,36,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> i've done the steeda's too, went with Adjustable upper control arms,and aluminum lowers.. everything is straight forward... other than drilling/burning out your stock upper bushing connected to your rear end housing... best best is to take a drill bit and hit the edges of the bushing and let the drill work its way around the entire bushing.. it should come right out after this.. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
