    So I see a lot of people are having premature failure out of the moog LCA bushings. So what about the ROCA LCA bushing (part # 666087). I just purchased a set of 4 but want to know if I will be wasting my time putting them in if they are going to fail in 10k miles

    II don't think they have ever been mentioned in this thread before. First I've heard of them.

    Well dang! I reckon I will install and then do a follow up.

    That's funny that no one has seen them befor, because during the past 6 months of me doing research on bushing replacements those were mostly the main ones that popped up on eBay and Amazon.

    I will be using the moog lower ball joints though.

    That's what I've heard. I'm still sure my LBJ are in good shape, but why not replace them while everything is out. Good piece of mind

    I'm going to have to tackle the bushings pretty soon. I bought some used OEM LCA's to refurbish so, no pressure from the truck being down.

    I see four options for bushings:

    The Moog are out from what I can tell.

    Does that sound about right?

    There are reports of success with the whitline, at least one in this thread. As long as I can return mine, I'll think I'll try them.

    I would suggest the Mevotech or OEM bushing at this point.

    Someone got the white lines in but Being the Guinea pig I didn't want to destroy the bushing and not be able to return them.

    So far the Mevo techs have been great.
