Well, I'm at 38k miles, and had my pass side upper control
arm bushings replaced under warrenty at 13k miles, shortly
after JBA headers were installed. I'm lookig at 38K miles,
now and BOTH sides are shot, dealer won't touch it, says
headers have cooked the bushings, not CryCo fault.
I say BS, since I have installed temp monitor sensors
on the upper bushings, and have had only one area exceed
175F, but still under 200F. Seems like normal under hood
temps to me.
I suspect they are undersized for load/flex they see.
Please reply with any obvs you have. I plan on some
court action soon, along with another fellow on the list
