What happens when you replace oem rubber bushings.............continuous monthly cleaning and relubrication becomes the norm. Failure to maintain urethane and similar hard bushing will wear them fast from road dirt [sand] and grim.

Check to make sure the bushings are tight-loose bushings squeak. Kerosene makes a good bushing lube. Polyeurethane squeaks. Poly graphite is silent, however.

oK here it is................ squeaks were the failed bearings in my 2 yr. old SPL UCA's. coulda sent back to spl and they would have replaced (not sure of charge) plus shipping and down time....but opted to get bearings locally $8.50 each X 8 =$68plus 3 hours labor to take arms out replace bearings and reinstall arms.James

Interesting. Glad SPL is in town.

He was explaining the new Upper Ling design to me, but it won't be in production for awhile.
