Lower control arm rebush or not

From what I was told the only degree you have is selling paraphernalia at the local Cannabis shop. Didn't know they sell rubber pipes.

You cannot look at rubber and tell its age or life it has left. Stop leading guy on. If he has the arms out and he doesn't know the age of the bushings . REPLACE THEM.

As I have pointed out MANY times before, you have been told wrong. I have an engineering degree from one of the top public schools in the country, and I've been a firefighter by trade for over twenty years. And I'm not posting more than that on the open web, because I don't have a thing to prove to you.

You and the member that "told you" have lowered yourself to attacking my character because you can't make an argument on the facts. But you two had to make up a character to do that, because I'm not that guy. The guy that "told you" just did a search on facebook and picked the first guy he found in my general geographic area with a similar name that had a job he didn't like that happened to belong to some kind of mopar facebook group (for a year and model of truck I don't even own!). The guy he picked doesn't live in the same city as me, doesn't own the same cars as me, and doesn't even have the same damn name as me. It's pathetic you still drag that out every time you can't make your point with facts. There's a reason why all of the posts where you and that other guy try to slander me with that nonsense keep getting deleted, it's because they're 100% bullshit and I proved it to a mod.

You can absolutely inspect a bushing and determine if it's good or not. It actually kinda surprises me that someone that's been working on cars as long as you claim to have been can't even do a simple bushing inspection that is done at every single Les Schwab in the country probably dozens of times a day, and gets a warranty afterwards. I wouldn't tell the guy the bushing would last for years, and if he wants to replace it while the LCA's are out that's not a bad idea because pulling the LCA's is a bunch of work. But the idea that you can't inspect a bushing and tell if it's any good or not is just flat out wrong.
