I haven't put them in yet, since my shop space is jacked right now. Hopefully next weekend.

Daniel, did you use the grease supplied with the kit, or something different? I've actually heard from a very good source that regular silver anti-sieze compound is better than the kit grease.

What differences do you exactly notice? I HAVE to buy a new bushing setup soon since all mine are pretty much worn&blown&torn lol. 100k miles it was bound to happen to me.

And installation, you take these to a professional shop with a bearing compressor right? I think I have one of these at my shop but I never use it.

I have never tried the anti seize before but i don't see why it wouldn't work the same as the grease that comes with them

As for the performance of the bushing they are made for a stronger material than the OEM rubber bushing and offer a firmer ride the the stock mussy bushing

Received my 7.18108 master kit on Monday!!! It's unbelievable how many pieces come in this kit! No wonder it's so dam expensive!

I finally got the big 4-post lift out of my shop last night, so now I can put up the 2-post lift. Hopefully I might be able to do the front-end kit install on Sunday-ish.

I did a writeup on the front end kit install under "Energy Suspension Front End Kit Installed!"

Cliff's notes: Fairly easy install, if you have lots of tools. LOVE the bushings!

Has anyone done the rear bushings??? How hard at they to install??? The whiteline fronts were a slight PITA cuz of the metal inserts. Im thinking about doing the subframe too if its not too complicated. Can anybody provide input on the complete rear install???
