Rich---I had the same "ovaling out" with my urethane TA bushings after
short time and mileage. I went with RGood's nylatron setup about a year
ago. I also installed some Zerk fittings in the arms, so I could give
them a shot of grease now and then. (This addition should help any
material, 'cept maybe the rubber ones) I don't know how long these nylon
bushings will last,but they have to be better than urethane. The hard
rubber upgrade is probably a good choice here, also.
The steel concave spacers that come with the nylatron kit are a bonus
for a proper setup.

I an doing a little rear parts:
New springs (TRF "hi-perf?"), Conversion KYD shocks, hoses,
Alpine rear wheel cylinder, Brembo rears, Good adjustable trailing arm
brackets....
I bought my urethanes and steel (TRF, HP154) in 2004. I took
off the TAs and cleaned their. The urethanes the holes in the middle are
not round, there sort of oval now.
Is there anyway to correct this problem or do I need to
replace them? And shoud I get urethane, Prothane or Nylatron? (I'm not a
racer or autox.)
