I replaced all my torque rod bushings 2 years ago. I drive my truck pretty dang hard off road. Most of my busing are pretty toast. I tested the play with a crow bar today and lots of rubber separation and movement.
Question 1: Is it worth buying the steel press in ball joint looking ones...
Neutral. I did rev the rpms up but I did not try it in gear. I thought it would be simple like my hydraulic winch system on my boat. engage the hydros and system ready. need a little more power add a few rpms.
