I've order them, all my X3 owning friends have too.
Thanks TCP, I'm always interested in what you're doing to your x3. I'm curious, have you played with the shock settings?
Please do not "wallow" out the hole like the video with the drill bit @TPC ! Let me know what size the bushings are and I will probably have a ream that you can borrow to make the bushings fit correctly... I can't believe some of the stuff I see online. To do this right you should ream the hole slightly undersize and heat the upright up so that the bushing will be an interference fit. If the bushings move in the upright you will defeat the purpose and ruin your upright quickly... I know you probably already know this but the video made me cringe!Arrived with the drill bit and Locktite.

So...what your'e saying is wallering out a hole to fix a wallered out hole issue isn't a good idea?
Thanks I will take you up on that.Please do not "wallow" out the hole like the video with the drill bit @TPC !

Just might. I’ve been surprised what they cover. Ya never know.will extended warranty cover this issue? Not adding the aftermarket parts, fixing the issue once it starts
