I thought I'd check a few things under the truck last night and found this:
Rear bushing for the radius arm. Both of them were like this, and both are aftermarket with maybe 50k kms on them. When I put the lift kit in the truck from Dobinsons I also picked up caster correction bushings. I thought the rear bushings looked ok, but the shop that installed them said the rear ones needed to be replaced as well, but they used an aftermarket part (Beck-Arnley). I'm not sure how long the Dobinsons ones are expected to last, but I'm wondering if I should just splurge for the Delta VS arms and then I can continue to use factory bushings and not have to think about it for a long time.
