Does it make sense to buy just the bushing if I want to refresh the tension strut?
I have an 03 4.6is and when I replaced the ball joints last month I found the bushings on the strut were easily twisting when I maneuver the other end of the strut.
Also does anyone know what the Lemforder or Meyle part number would be for the tension strut bushing?
Last question: how do I remove the old bushing?
Btw saw this on the fcpeuro site:

Does this work for the oem tension strut?
