    Thanks, Brian. I've got a set of Alcan Springs on the way. They come with poly bushings. Good advice

    Thanks Brian, I saw that vid before I replaced my poly bushings on my alcan springs and lower control arms. It really helps with their functionality.

    Just out of curiosity, would it be any benefit to install the poly bushings with the stock rear shackle? Say if you didn’t want to lift the rear with the coach builder shackles but wanted the added benefits of the poly bushings themselves?

    I don't know the answer to that one... But I can tell you what a bitch it is getting the rubber ones out. That's a lot of effort.

    Got a link to where you got the bushings? Do they work with any shackles?

    I would also like to know if anyone has done this, and what the results were. I'm just a tad ass-high for my liking, and I'm on the 1" setting already with my Toytecs.
