Belltech Struts with bad bushings??

[GranPrix]

Anyone that’s running Belltech struts has had any issues with the bushings wearing out prematurely? I just made 2 years in December with them, normal daily driving living in south Florida and my bushings looks like they’re 20 years old! I’m also getting your typical clunking noise.

Ouch.

Yeah.... That should not happen.

Other folks on this Forum have used Belltech shocks, and hopefully they will chime in with their experiences.

After doing some reading it seems I might go with a quality strut/shock such as Bilstein or OEM to have a nice smooth OEM ride and switch to a drop spindle to keep the lowered height and keep the Belltech rear hangers.
