Which front end rubber bushings did you replace?
The only ones I've ever heard of are Sway Bar Bushings.
Are there others?

1. Front shocks upper and lower
2. Trackbar at axle bracket
3. Steering damper (stabilizer) both ends
4. Lower control arms - both ends
5. Upper control arms - both ends
6. Sway bar end links
7. Sway bar to frame brackets

I don't know if I've forgotten any. Folks are probably most familiar with sway bar end link bushings, and shock bushings.

I'm glad you asked that instead of me.

On my door jam it says 215.
On my build sheet it says 225.
When I bought it, it had 235's.
So really... what is OEM??????????

Believe it or not... I actually saw a set of BFGs on an XJ the other day in a parking lot that were 215s..... I was thinking to myself "they look so tiny" lol... It's like a XJ that's rollin' on a set of cherrios! LMAO...
