Thumbs up So I installed 1le rear lca bushings . . .

Bought them on ebay and hammered them in (found a guide online for diy)
Installation was simple with rhino ramps.

Felt that it tightened up the rear and helps put power down a little better out the hole and corners. Ride felt the same, no extra harshness.

Cheap and easy mod!

LCA bushings are probably one of the best suspension mods period! IMO, for the money, they make a bigger difference than just about anything.

Google 1le bushings, IIRC I paid around $25 or so.

Depends on how "friendly" you are with the local auto parts store that carries Moog bushings....

Okay, I found a post (from Sam) saying that he has them for $52.00 a set. I not sure if that's a set of 4? or a set of 2?

The price as changed some, but a full set is 4 bushings (2 for each arm). Current pricing is $57 for the complete set.

These are in a Moog box, but the are the very same (complete with the same casting numbers) as original 1LE bushings, and readily available.

Link to them on my website: http://www.stranoparts.com/partdetai...D=18&ModelID=7
