When I worked on these cars when they were still being made, the recommended
replacement interval for the A-arm bushings was one year, but they were shot in
three months. It was embarassing to have to tell a customer that they needed to
replace parts that were replaced three months before.

I had delrin bushes in my car for years and they gave a little too much road
feel for my taste. I replaced them with the V8 bushes and they're still going
strong ten+ years later. YMMV
