I have seen no such issues and we have a lot of people using them.

It really is up to you and if you feel better with flex, then use the factory unit.

When we started putting solid greasable upper control arm bushings and solid aluminum body-to-frame bushings on our street cars, there were people who screamed that it would crack welds, break things, etc.

100,000 miles later, in a STREET car and countless thousands of miles in race cars and no problems whatsoever.

And I drive this 1975 Firebird everyday.....Robert
