When I pulled mine out the oem bushings were still fresh. No play or stress cracks. Very firm for a old car. Even all the subframe arms weren't oxidized and very easy to break loose without much effort. But I remember the hose under the engine bay for the fuel filter burst. And when I went to replace the fuel filter, I checked it out and it was very constipated. Barely any air pressure could get through. So I'm thinking maybe it caused some back pressure in the fuel system causing the actual tank to crack open. My car is also a 94 auto
