Replaced failed strutrod poly-bushing today - Took video of working suspension

If the bushing is completely gone then the metal strutrod can knock/vibrate against the K-member. But the noise would be more constant during driving.
But a one should also inspect the ball joint in the UCA. This is a usually less loaded part that gets worked and possible play becomes noticable with larger suspension movements.

I've coated the fresh poly-bushings with ARP grey molycote grease. The shiny line between bushing and K-member is the grease.

I took notice when torquing the lock nuts if the LCA got pulled forward or not. Couldn't notice a difference so I suspect the bushings where the correct thickness.
I did make the fresh bushings 1mm thicker than the 'old', intact one that I removed.
Also decided to mount the large washers with the 'cup' side to the bushing now, thinking it would keep/grab/hold/ the bushing together a bit more. I know the washers are ment to be installed with the convex curve to the bushings to prevent the swivel-movements and cause bending/breakage of the strutrod-threads.
