I remember reading somewhere that J&M eliminated the grease fittings on their latest version due to people overgreasing the bushings and causing them to fail.

Took it out for a drive after the install and due to the rain, I really didn't get to notice the difference yet. I do notice that if I do some hard right and lefts though while in a straight line the back end does seem to stay put more and is a bit tighter rather than the previous whip feeling.

Installed a BMR strut brace today and I can sure feel the difference that it makes.

Great! Alot of guys claim that they feel no difference. It's good to hear from someone that does. (I hope it's a good difference.)

BTW, how are the LCAs? Are you feeling other differences?

Before the strut brace, I could feel a bit of a difference. There is one section of the highway that I take daily where it is a long left sweeper but there is a bump just as you go into the turn in the fast lane. Usually when I hit that, the back end really kicks out. This has been reduced quite a bit. It will only get better when my new trackbar parts come in too.
