Ok, here's what I found- my panhard bushings are bad. Even though they're only 3 months old. I believe it may be my fault by tightening the mounting bolts too tight and clamping the bushing and not allowing for free movement. Or I could be way off on that. Long story short, should I avoid the allmakes? I found ones by a company called Lemforder, they are twice as much $$. Worth it?? Thanks.

You are supposed to re-load both axles to working weight i.e. axle stands under both the axles on a flat surface, before tightening the Panhard or Watts linkage bolts or in fact any other suspension bolts otherwise the rubber type inserts are 'twisted' once you drop the truck down, checkout the RAVE procedure.

Yes, I was just brainstorming on the overtighening idea. I think it was just a bum bushing.
I was going to go with the Lemforders, but after seeing I can get poly ones from lucky 8 at $10 less, plus thankfully they're only an hour away so I dont have to wait on shipping.
I shoulda figured Lemforder was decent quality, i see alot of MB owners use them
