    Nice work! One advice (my personal expereince) - go back to rubber bushings. The urithane bushings have two main disadvantages - 1. The whole front becomes way too hard when driving 2. Urithan lasts 1/4 the time rubber does - when my desintegrated after about 4 years, i replaced them all back to rubber.
