I just replaced my old ones with moog ones and I had zero complaints about them. Car rides much better after replacing the old ripped bushings.

Thanks effin. Did you use the special tool to press the old bushings out with the arm on the car?

Nope. Just pulled the trailing arms off enough to bang it out with a hammer. Took some choice words and a lot of good hits but I got them in. A hammer is a lot cheaper than a 180 dollar tool you'll probably only use once. Just make sure you get it all lined up right and it shouldn't be any problem.

Also I have no idea why people suggest burning the old bushings or cutting them. They come out a million times easier than they go in, it took me maybe 4 even hits on each side and they popped right out.

Mine came out with around half a dozen hits each. Since I had the arms off (only takes 5 bolts) I used my $99 12 ton press from harbor freight.

My son ran the pump handle while I moved the arm around. maybe 10 minutes an arm.

I used the dormans from Rock auto.

Moog makes quality oem replacement chassis products no doubt.
