FSM calls for 80W-90 GL5 gear lube. Should be able to find that at your local auto parts store.

Replaced mine couple of years ago with whiteline bushing. Extremely happy with it.

I've had OEM replacement links on my Hotchkis bar, car is dropped 3" and they have performed admirably for over 40K miles. Can't remember the brand though, .

Get it in a lift, grab the input shaft with both hands and start aggressively pulling it up and down while someone visually inspect the bushing. Rinse/repeat for the sides where the axles are.

Also you can use binders on the front tires on a drive up lift and lightly drive fwd/rev while inspecting the bushings, make sure to bind the front of the vehicle really securely though and leave the drop-stops up

Scratches and nicks on just the rears our the box. Front where perfect.

20x9 fronts and 20x10.5 rears. Going to swap the Nitto’s over whenever the replacements get here.

man, supplying good rubbers for 20’s gunna be pricey
