EVO Tire Carrier Bushing Play

[TrailHunter]

Has anyone experienced play in the upper bushing of EVO's tire carrier? Is this normal? I'm assuming I can get replacements?

Tightening the Bolt Stopped the play.... for now... just not sure if the play is normal... I can't remember how tight it was on initial install.

I never had an issue but it’s just a cheap poly bushing. Probably used on every truck in the 80’s. I would just measure and replace if you need. Or spray some dry lube in there.

The fix is a JT.

Mine worked loss after a couple years. Tightened the shit out of it and been good for a year or so.
