Cruise control on my crewcab will stay on the same speed when you mash the go pedal and then coast back down to that speed.

come on Eric, I know you've owned at least 1 ****ty car that would do this automatically for you, not when appropriate.

Not recently, but I'll give you one guess who owned a grey truck that shut off frequently. Here's a hint: I used it to drive around illegal immigrants to mow lawns in

sharpe you're right. '88-'98 chevys have the best cruisse control ever. The brake light controller went out on my tahoe once and CC would stay on even if you mashed the brake. That was scary!

Good thing there's an override function on the CC switch

Where are you kids buying your bushings from now a days. You know like anti-wrap bar bushings, etc.. Crap that would fit 1.5 or 1.75" tube. Probably rubber over poly.

you can buy stock rubber bushings from napa, advance, and the like. You just have to go in and order them, then wait a few days. Just ask for yj bushings.

As for poly

Stock TJ control arm bushings. Get them out of some free control arms. They'll press into some 2" pipe, think it was sch40. You have to weld a bead around the inside on one side of the pipe, it'll make since once you look at them, the bushings have inner and outer steel sleeves. I also tack the outer sleeve to the pipe.

Spending $20/bushing is for suckers. The YJ spring bushing thing also works, and keeps you from falling into the "suckers" category. Of course I guess you're the working man anyways....

I HATE those bushings Greg and Troy had them on the comp rigs and they wouldn't last one outing and where the biggest PITA to change. Don't use the stock TJ crap bushings... The rubber gave too much also, causing axle wrap and subsequent hopping, then subsequant ring and pinion...

There is always a cost involved in 'cheap'.

They've lasted better than the Summit joints I have.

The summit ones are the best deal price-wise and their internal sleeve is a solid tube, i.e. not split.
