control arm bushing replacment

4x4hover · 02-13-2007, 07:01 PM

a friend of mine just replaced his control arm bushing on his car. he then said that i should replace mine as well. i wouldn't have thought about it normally. what do you think? i have no idea. I have an 05 5.3l Silverado with a 6" rcd suspension lift on 35" procomp mud terrian's. I also have a k&n FIPK air intake and a hypertech power programmer.

no they are not. my friend is into major mods on cars. he said i should. i dont plan on it. i just wanted to know more about it.

i always say if it aint broke, dont fix it. if you are fixin to do some serious offroading, and i do mean serious, i might suggest it.

being only 2 years old I don't see why they would need to be changed.

they are really hard to replace without a good shop press. they never want to come out. leave them alone.
