idosubaru Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Amazon sells those bushings for about $22 a side. Aftermarket (Febest brand) probably solid rubber, probably won't last as long as OEM, but less than 1/4 the price. Replace them every two years until the car has rusted away and you still save money. i installed two of those FEBEST a couple years ago, one failed at 30,000 a couple weeks ago. the rubber completely separated all 360 degrees. like you said - for $22 and how easy they are to replace, not a catastrophic part, so far it's been worth it to just have one fail. oddly i replaced good OEM units with 220,000 miles since they were so cheap and i think i was already working on somethign else. so i won't use these as "preventative" but they're a good fit for plenty of other situations.
