Default bilstein replacement bushing (LS1 F-body)

Hey guys,

I have the HD (yellow & blue) bilstein shocks on my 2002 Camaro z28. On the rear that bolts to the rear diff, the bushing/bolt gave out on the left side only. I replaced it with a universal bushing/shock from Kragen but has been giving me problems(noises) since.
I ordered up all four replacement bushings from Summitracing on this link:
http://www.summitracing.com/search/?...0bushing&dds=1

Keywords: bilstein shock bushings.

Has anyone else had a similar problem? I ordered all four bushings as I'm unsure, and somethings gotta solve it (hopefully).
Any advice/help on the bushings would be great!

(OH, I did call bilstein, tech guy was nice but after some research had no solution for it; Only their OH facility does repairs.)

The Bilsteins have a lifetime warranty if you're the original owner -- phone them...

Might want to post a pic of the problem part(s).
