    Im not sure what type of bushing, when i get a day off work ill just head down to my local 4x4 shop and talk to them and see what they suggest.
    The selling feature for uca for me was uneven tire wear, i dont wanna wear out brand new tires.

    so it really softens it up huh! i know the sway bars original function is to mitigate body roll, but you are the second person i have heard say that it makes the ride completely different.

    Update: Just put on my TC UCA's... It fixed my alignment and helped the ride quality also.

    not bad i'm not a fan of the notched look around the edge though, but i love this style of wheel. it's a timeless design for sure you could bolt a set of mickey's classic 2 or the eagle alloy's in any color and size and it would look great.

    it looks like i'm not going to after all. i talked to ok auto the shop thats installing my lift for me on the 24th and i had asked him about replacing the strut bushing with a urethane one and he said theres no point. he said the only way it would fail is if it was installed incorrectly or a lot of time or miles where put on the truck. he also said that a urethane bushing would increase the felt vibration now i'm not sure about that last one i figured i might ask around myself about this to see if it's something i should or shouldn't do. lol i could use some experience on this one as well.
