    Sounds like the powerflex poly bushings don't have the pre-load issue, but I worry they may transfer additional force to the subframe....thoughts?
    The OEM RTAB's need to be compressed a little and then shoved into the housings but I would imagine the RTAB rental tool should to that as well, otherwise what good would it do if it only removed the old ones. I'd go with the split bushings and avoid the hassle if I were you.
