At Jack-it we strongly recommend using control arms equipped the factory style clevite rubber bushings. While some brands use polyurethane bushings claiming superior durability, the reality is poly bushing wear quickly, give a harsher ride and usually squeak unless you regularly lubricate the bushings. Clevite rubber bushings wear better, do not effect the ride quality and are not noisy. Brands like BDS, Zone and Rough Country all use this type of bushing.
Important Notes
Will NOT work for stock height vehicles or 4" IFS lift kits for standard GM1500 models.
Will work with most leveling and 6" lift kits on the market.
