I had the hard plastic bushings and installed they were fine, but they started binding and getting noisy over time once the grease had worked its way out. I went with the Elephant setup and this greatly improved the front suspension. I am sure if I would have machined the hard plastic and / or installed grease fittings on those, they should have worked.

You should be able to easily move the arm up and down by hand. With a few pounds of force. I would take off the strut and torsion bar cap on the pass. side and see how easy it is to move. Then report back to us!
