After 4 years squeaking went away. As for the ride quality, i never had any complaint. Fact that I have a 94 with softer springs may have affected lack of ride quality deterioration.

Curiosity got the best of me so I ordered a set to see if they are any better than the polyurethane bushings I have now. Will keep the group posted how the installation turns out.

Nice Phil, I can see the Wazoo assembly line moving like during the shift light install.
