Seat Bushings

[Thor]

I'm in need for replacing the seat bushings and have found a lot of talk(mostly bad) about the different brands/styles but haven't really come across a clear consensus on which ones are the best or last the longest. I've seen where people buy the $20 3D printed kit on amazon and they break, all the way to people buying random bushing pieces at Lowes or Home Depot. What's the verdict here? I'd like to buy and install something I wont have to worry about for years instead of months even if cost is under $20.

I got the ones from Amazon and they're working fine.

My bad, it wasn't Amazon. The brand was StableSeat but it looks like they may be out of business.

I recently installed these and they didn’t last two days without making noise even after adding silicone grease.

Buy the nylon hardware from Lowe’s. It’s the best option. 3D printed parts will fail you and waste your money.

Those crapped out on me after less than a year as well.

That's what I did and they are still going strong.

Folks who did this seem to have had long term success.

I will look into doing this. It seems like this might be the best option.

It blows me away with how big the Jeep aftermarket industry is, we have to resort to buying garage made 3D print parts or having to modify off the shelf parts to fit.
