WhiteLine Bushings

[96RedRunner]

Anyone running Rear Upr Lwr Pan bushings?
Thought I'd try them out on extra set of arms had laying around vs OE Black Friday under $200.

I've had Whitelines in my Front LCAs, Rear UCAs, and Panhard for about a year or so and they have been performing admirably.
I greased them according to spec and they have not squeaked or exhibited any damage - despite my best efforts.
Ride quality is acceptable and I do appreciate the less restrictive movement they provide.

I would have installed lower rears, but I had bent mine and went with Rokmen arms, who's bushings have...not held up as well.

I am running the Front LCA bushings. I have a set of the rears on the bench, just waiting to get over to my buddies house with a press.

Removing the Old bushing from the arm is the hardest part. There is an Arrow on the bushing that appears to point to the Installation direction. I believe you should push the opposite of the arrow to make removal easier.

You will need a 28mm Socket or Press sleeve in order to remove the OEM bushings. you can also burn them out and try to cut the sleeves with and air hammer or hacksaw.

Yes, I'm running Whiteline in both. No issues. Here's videos of both installs:

Performance feedback what I was looking for. Removal and install of bushings standard OP,
easy install easy access to re-lube. Worth a shot for the cost.

I've been running them for around 35K miles. No issues and I've wheeled my rig quite a bit with them.

I've had Whiteline bushings in the steering rack, front lower control arms and panhard bar for a couple of years. Not a peep and no damage to date. These are paired with SPC UCAs, Dobinsons IMS shocks, Eimkeith PCB, and OPT adjustable rear UCAs.

After 400,000+ miles of '99 coils & a few sets of Bilsteins, I couldn't be happier with how the truck rides & handles these days.
