Hi swebb CO,

"Does anyone have experience with the less expensive ones? If they will last 5 years, that's plenty good enough for me."

I have installed aftermarket bushings on 5/29/2012 at 173,040 miles. Currently, I put over 73,000 miles on it.

Yes, it's sagging a little now but it's not clunking yet. I torqued it while the wheel was hanging up in the air and I did one side at a time. I have to say I am lucky that it's lasting this long even after improper installation.

I live in Brooklyn, NY. Our roads are just horrible, I can't wait for this Winter. . .

Good luck.
