I have a pic, I'll try to remember to upload it tonight. I have about 30,000 miles on mine, and they are still tight.

Ok. That's it. Fuck this. I'm done.

Ordered another set of Prothanes. I'd rather do the Prothanes every other year than spend any more time trying to get the Energy Suspension ones to work. What a poorly designed piece of shit. Durometers are totally wrong for the design and, as said before, there's WAY too much of an interference fit on the middle bushing. Press fit is one thing, but this is ridiculous. It's a joke trying to get these in.

Once I got the bushings into one control arm, I figured that was where you cut the notch. I did that, but all it did was give me a better view of when the top bushing f-ing popped out every time I put the control arm into position. A few repetitions of that, and I was done (and absolutely covered with that damn lubrication that is now all over my tools). :mad:
