That wear characteristic has been very minimal since I changed the one set of bushings out.
I have noticed increased inner and outer shoulder wear recently. It matches my impression of the slow increase in tramlining.

What kind of increase in noise/vibration did you see with the SPL FLCA bushings? Any downsides to them?

Any thoughts on the affect of upper control arm bushing? Do they just not wear as quickly? And how about the rear? Same thing?
