I pulled the trailing arms today and the bushings look ok.

HOw can I check them to see if they are still usable?

Will the stock bushings survive powder coating?

Thats why I don't understand it Felix . . . unless he thinks that they end up wearing badly and become more adept at pivoting in one direction? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
