Well the energy suspension kit comes with both bushings, and then all I would need is new tie rod ends.

funny thing is, I am picking up parts to do this to my car too. But I am doing it for the performance aspects, and not the maintenance haha.

The bushing that is seperated on the cruiser is the vertical bushing.

Its basically, cut out old bushing, and since its out might as well sand and repaint to prevent rust, then press in new bushings, drill out the tie rod end, bolt down the new one, and put it back on, then get alignment.

Have you had any issues with cruise control. hers doesnt work, the light comes on, but it doesnt engage at all? maybe the sensor is bad? or the whole switch? I havent really looked at it, and never owned a car with cruise.

One thing to check - cruise is on the passenger side up by the firewall. It has a small vacuum hose that plugs in from the bottom - if that hose is off, everything else is fine, except no cruise... (ask me how I know )
