Message	break the arms when the grease dries out. Front arms have been crapping out since the 1990s when the 1st gen Stillen units came out, the bushings still fail the same way in current offerings, including Whiteline units in stock arms. Gordo had a testimonial on here about how they made constant noise and failed. Im sure the post is here.
