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?



These were one of options I was looking at, but the eccentric part of the bushing throws me off. Both OEM and SPL have it centered. I can probably use it's eccentric character to skew my arms in a way I would prefer, but still in thought.
Standard Nissan fashion. The rear bushings have 2 silicone filled chambers. Like I said. The front bushings are not silicone filled.

Other silicone filled bushings on the Z are. The rear diff bushing. The 2 front sub-frame bushings.
