Scott, I've taken the rockers apart on both my wife's car (CHE) and mine (Straub) to inspect them for wear/damage. So far both of them have held up well, on my wife's car I saw maybe .0001" of wear over 5,000 miles but I believe that will settle down because the ground surface of the trunion shaft is pretty rough when I look at it under a magnifier when they're new, hers were polished nicely on the load side after some miles. The CHE bushings being released for diy install are going to be slip fit versus pressed which I believe will actually work better and lower the moi and friction loss of the rocker since it will be able to rotate around the bushing. We haven't had the opportunity to test the new CHE design yet but I believe it will be the best bushing upgrade available.
