My pfadts are in and I have about 500 miles on them. I HATE THEM! Yes I got the alignment. The front end sounds broken, it pops and clicks with even the slightest movement, I have an annoying vibration at speed that starts at about 50 if you drive straight long enough it goes away, until you change speed, or change lanes, god forbid turn. I used a front end service ball joint removal and press kit to get them off, the driver side was a nightmare still, but the passenger side came right off. If I broke something you would think they would have caught it during the alignment.

I bought a bottle of the stuff off amazon, cleaned up the bushings/arms and then used plenty of the Loctite 620, let it cure for 3 days. I haven't had a noise/problem since even after autox and road trips. Here is the link to amazon for the Loctite: http://www.amazon.com/Loctite-Temper...ds=loctite+620

Is this something specific to the Pfadt set up or should someone running the White line bushings look into the locktite prior to install?

Order the Loctite 638 instead. It's stronger than 620. First clean the surface of both the Pfadt bushing and the interior of the radius arm, then apply the Loctite coating both surfaces totally. Push the bush in and wipe off the excess with a tissue, then apply the locking spring. keep in a warm area and honestly I let mine sit for 3 days and never had a creak, crackle of pop out of them. I've done 4 sets so far with great results and actually just replaced the last set that went bad in my car after 30000 miles of pothole, winter salt hard cornering you name it. The salt killed them though so don't use in winter.
