Maybe Shawn Wright will chime in here and let us know how his non-welded bushings are holding up after 8 years. Mine are good after 40 K miles including daily winter (salty) driving.

What type of fusion between the bushing and the UCA shaft could possibly cause the bushing housing to rotate in the arm? I know it took extreme force to press them in. -- John Meeks
