There you go another improper install. I have no dog in the fight so get what you will, the original rubbers came out of Standard Products to Ford and the Moog's were just a higher durameter and were supposed to handle some of the curb/safety bump situations for a firmer feel. Max is certainly another favorite of mine, I have a place set for him every Thanksgiving.
I don't want to agure I trust your opinion.
I also trust KK.
Nobody works on my stuff but me, until now.
Thats how much I trust kk.
I just didn't have the time to do the install, I'm under a big time crunch and these bushing you just don't blow off.
These bushings don't even look like anything else you can buy the shape is different.
With that being said its still fairly obvious how they are supposed to be installed.
Once you had them in your hands you would see there was no way anyone could install them on without triming a lot off.
You know Moog makes two styles of the brushing right?
There is the MOOG Part # K8680
Frt Susp; At Control Arm; Problem Solver; w/thermoplastic bushing
I am talking about MOOG Part # K8659
Frt Susp; At Frame; Improved Design
Go to rockauto and you can see the pictures of both.
The new and improved bushing looks like nothing else out there.
I only bought them because I try to get the best.
I only chimed in because I don't want to have anyone else go thru this headache.
There are threads on other sites about Moog bushings being junk.
There not hard to find, I wish I looked.
You could be right, they could be improper installs.
I can't find any threads on stock bushings going bad after a new install....only threads stating they are bushing to buy.
From this research done on my part, and this problem with these Moog bushings, I would advise anyone taking on this task to buy stock from
Max.
