after putting lift in your car, it changes the angle of your front lower control arms and therefore chops the bushes out rather quickly. you'll find if you undo the main bolt at the rear of the front lower control arms and undo the two bolts on the diff and slide the arm down forward and out, those bushes will be more than likely fire trucked.
