    So Tim, how do you like the eurethane bushings? I installed a set of PowerFlex eurethane thrust arm bushings 2 weeks ago. So far so good. Got rid of the 60 mph shimmy, but that was the minor issue I had. My rotors were so badly warped that everything was maked by massive vibration they were producing. Replaced the rotors and now it drives and brakes beautifully. I still find myself anticipating a vibration every time I go to hit the brakes. Hope to get over that soon.
