Hey, you guys say.,.. Right rear bushing? I noticed that my upper control
arm bushing also tore off there. I have not had the tmie to look into it,
but the others are torn pretty badly too. RECALL!!!!

<< gee... thats odd. mine are shot too. 2nd set. First died at
 about 15k miles, now it's 37k and no better. I JUST got in a
  set of tempture tel-tale strips set for 175F to 300F I start
 a big camping trip tomorrow, 600 miles on the road, 50 in the
 dirt. That ought to give me a good indication on if it's temp
  related, or if the bushings are undersized. Heat would crack
 & glaze. Mine are shredded, like they tore when used.
   I'm also looking into the ES bushings, but the $350 labor to
 install has me counting coins first. >>
