LOL my bad, i was actually falling while i took that pic. hah

OP:::hope this was of help. what kind of bushings did you buy to replace the old ones?

iirc, the sf spacers only work with oe bushings right?
i got the solid subframe risers from POWEREDBYMAX. they actually push up your subframe and help correct suspension geometry. RUSTOLEUM FTW lol

Where you get the solid bushings?

OP failed, do not get spacers, even with new OEM because the spacers will just rip the new ones to shreds.

Easy way to remove OEM bushings is heat up area around bushing, along with torching the fcuk out the the rubber, take a nice long hard candle and shove it in and around the metal casing area to penetrate, to further lube the removal of the casings.

If the OEM bushings are still intact, and youve broken the bond with the subframe, you can use a monster cock hammer and a massive socket and pound it out. Use enough lube i.e pbblaster+candle wax and you should beble to pipe that bitch down hard enough to slide the bushing right out.
