    There is a thread from a few months back about a bad batch of green bushings. Looks like you got a set.

    Yeah - I was one of the ones saying my IE's had been fine. Karma, or something.

    About to order AKG streets for everything under there.

    Mine were orange. Now they are purple and shouldn't fall out, LOL

    I'll poke around the forum too, but is there anything else that makes sense to take care of while the subframe is out? I have new bushings for my shock mounts so, I'll be tackling that as well.

    Trailing arm bushings. Might as well while your in there. OEM is preferred, but you already know that.

    Too late, ordered AKG streets I've had the IE reds in there this whole time without any drama.

    Mine were fine when this issue first surfaced last year, then they did the same thing. I replaced them with the same greens, only the "new" darker green. Thanks Jeff!
