yea the rims fit perfectly...aftermarket and had them for 3 yrs now...i'm checking everything out now..its all torqued down right sooo we'll see.

ok, i'm pretty positive its my rear suspension arm bushing

should i get just the one bushing or get the yaya kit and replace them all instead of waiting for the others to crap out?

Inspect all bushings and all suspension. Bad bushings can cause wheel alignment to change during drive.

Today I inspected my rear suspension and found 5 bad bushings, so on Monday I'll be changing them, probably all 12 bushings, don't whant to mess with bushings in near future, after alignment is done).

After you replace bushings it's recommended to do wheel alignment.


I'm interested too, how good are yaya bushings?
