Just an FYI. I was a PITA to rip everything apart and replace them.

Thanks for the heads up! When did you buy your kit &have the failure? I'll look into your solution and see about making some up ahead of install.

I got it somewhere around December or January? I started driving the truck in June. The bushing are red Energy Suspension. Tina would not give me a part number, but I found them on ES website. You can only buy them in bulk, so they can't be real good. It looks like NL makes their own metal sleeve. They wore out where the sleeve goes through the bushing. They also do not have any slots for lubricant to get through the bushing between the sleeve and bushing. On the second set, I added 4 slots hoping that was the issue. I used the special grease for polyurethane bushings, but it didn't make a whole lot of difference.

Here is the bushing with dimensions. These show grease slots, but mine had none. https://www.energysuspensionparts.com/bulk-2557
