hey all .. its been almost a year since i installed my lift ..rustys 4.5in with 3in leafs and shackles.. i did how ever add 1.75 spacers for the front also to help lvl things out with the winch and bumper added weight.. im planning some steering upgrades and maybe some long arms .but before i can do long arms . my adj rustys lower control arm bushings have worn out on the body side (not axle side) the end thats adjustable.. WELL rustys do offer replacement ends .. so my question here is flex joints or rubber bushing.. im useing the rubber bushing ends now ..are the flex joints better? rustys bushings!!
thanks

 

If you plan on going to long arms then get another set of cheaper rubber ones. The flex joints are better and are rebuildable so they will last forever if you keep them greased but if you are ditching the short arms I wouldn't waste the coin.

 

the flex and the rubber ends are the same price i think.. i wont beable to go long arms quite yet.. and these ends needs replacing in a bad way.. thanks for the reply..

 

Right you are so I'd go with the flex ends plus you can sell them for more when you do get the long arms because they won't be worn out, as long as you grease them.
