2014 RAM 1500 with 6” Rough Country lift that was installed about 4 years ago. Bad vibration at highway speed for awhile now and front tires cupping. Also that “Wah Wah Wah” repetitive sound from front tires that increases with speed. Noticed these bushings are shot this evening, what are some good replacement options? Would like to keep the cost as reasonable as possible but also don’t want to have to do this repair again in a few more years. Thanks in advance.

Why does it suck so bad? I know for off road it should not even exist for best performance, maybe that’s what you mean, but I drive this truck 99.99% on road. Terrible vibration & tire cupping, so maybe this is the issue… def not doing me any favors. Either way needs to be addressed and am asking for suggestions based on above. Thanks!

Why does it suck so bad? Will new end links fix it or just be a bandaid? Is a whole new bar + end links a better solution, if so what are some suggestions? Forgive my ignorance on this, honest questions so I can understand.
When I bought my 2000 Jeep Wrangler, the previous original owner was quite proud of the Rough Country lift he recently installed. Total crap. Front shock didn’t make it two years, RC wouldn’t warranty because I wasn’t the original purchaser. Death wobble, worn rubber in the link ends. Total crap from a crap company with p.i.s.s poor customer support. Did just what Dilligaf said…..thru it all in the trash, replaced with original height OEM and smooth sailing ever since. I do know that the outrageous price for replacement RC 2.0 shock was made in China. Probably the manufacturer of the kit.

I'd try e trailer. They have a bunch and I mean a bunch of end links. Different lengths, different bends, the issue may be the ends are mostly aligned vs offset like your photos.

Or just buy bushings from them. They are great to work with
