URGENT Subframe Bushing ?

[MilTownSHO]

So I had my ASB's taken out today and stock put back in, and when I got home I noticed these in the bag

Don't those belong on the car? Will this hurt anything? Dangerous to drive? Hope not cause I'm driving about 100 miles in about 20 minutes.

I will get it fixed tommorow if they need to go back on, which I'm almost positive they do!

well I tried to IM you via AIM.

Those are the reinforcing plate washers that are supposed to go at the bottom of the bushing. There are ppl out there without them on thier car, and with AL SFB's they prolly aren't necessary, but I like the idea of a larger steel shelf there for the bushing to rest against.

Do you a set of FPS bushings? AFAIK both my bushings and SHOnut's bushing have counter-bored holes to facilitate the use of the reinforcing plates included in the recall kits. I don't believe that the original SFB's had a plate like that.

See pic below

Jason, did you have new recall kits installed when the bushings went on?

If you mean, did I use the same bolts and stuff agian, I did...

I've heard you can't cause they are one time use, but I've never had a problem, they have probably been off and on the car 3-4 times now, trying to deal with the ASB's.
