The Complete SPL Front Suspension
I read your suspension overhaul, but it completely skipped the bushing removal as you took it to the shop. I'm well aware that they get destroyed in the processing, that's why I'm asking for those who did destroy them, witness fluid leak out.

Posters #1 and #5(if the same as #1) has the front-facing bushing blown and leaking (as seen in the provided picture) I do not see any leaking evidence of the rear-facing bushing. The picture itself proves your claim the opposite. Unless you are mixed up?
