Looks like RE got a bad batch of bushings. I got mine in Feb and the bushings are toast. Called them up today and they told me about this bad batch and some new ones are on the way. Any one else having any problems? Sounds like they have worked hard to correct this and the new bushings are badass. I'll find out I guess. Thank you RE for being the good guys. Just thought I'd share.

Good to hear. I've always run RE springs and have had great luck all around.

I had the same problem. Mine where toast after one trip to elbe and about500 miles. But i have two sets of rubicon arms and the other is the old style that takes factory bushings so i swapped them out. Cause phil down at central has my new bushings on order but rubicon said they are on backorder.

They are on backorder but mine will be on the first shipment out. I'm just glad that axle movement will be gone.

I got my bushing around then as well, and still have some axle movement. I'll check the bushing and then get in contact with RE. Thanks for the info, Dave.

I've got a half dozen on order for customers to replace crappy ones. Glad they have someone new making them.
