Mike – I am up to around 12,000 miles – the bushings on upper rear A arm bushings look shot, lots of cracks –
I just tried removing the upper ball joint to remove the A arm – forgetaboutit – that thing is really stuck on.
Holy smokes, I guess I have to heat it and beat the hell out of it…thanks for helping………

Mike,

They are all the same.

Trip—unless you have 100k miles there should be no need to change them?
