    I have had the ecgs bushing on for about 500 miles and the dreaded vibe after lift has been completely cured so far. I went ahead and put on new wheels and tires and couldn't be happier . I suggest doing the upgrade!

    7,000 miles on my bushing. Vibration noise is still gone with a 2" level. So far I'm happy with that bushing

    I installed my bushing, along with a new seal in august of 2012, I can't remember the exact mileage, I have it written in my maintenance book...I don't have it with me at the moment, but somewhere in the 35-40k miles range. I have 80k, still going strong, no vibes at all...unless you count my warped rotors. Lol

    Do any of you guys have the ECGS needle bearing removal tool that you would pass along? Happy to pay, use, and pass along to someone else :)

    Went to my local dealership this morning to see about the bushing install. I provided the part and the tool (just courteous offer on the tool) and they quoted me at 5 hrs labor! Amounting to about $620. i said no thank you. Really didnt want to do it myself cause not sure i'll put it back together correctly. but i can def do it less than 5 hours. little disappointing

    It wasn't that hard really. Worst part is just getting to the bearing in the first place, took about 5 minutes after removing all the outer parts.

    5 hrs is crazy. It literally took me less than 2 hrs with front diff oil change. Longest part was pouring New gear oil in. Id like to see it in their book where it says 5 hrs.

    The same shit everyone else has.
    I did mine last weekend. Took less than 3 hours from start to clean up. Most of my vibration are gone, but I still have a little bit between 50-60 mph, but Im 99% sure it the tires. I need to get them balanced again.

    Still looking? I have one to pass along as soon as my buddy is done with it.
