I recieved this brand mix of control arm bushings from FCP several years ago:

1 lemfoerder(rear)
1 scan-tech(rear)
2 scan-tech(front)

Im preparing to change the bushings on my control arms, and my thoughts are to change the 1 rear scan-tech for lemfoerder and use the scan techs in the front.
Are should I go with lemfoerder all around?

I want to start on this today and would appreciate any comments or observations.

Thanks

The ScanTechs will probably not last as long as the Lemforders.
It would be good if you put the MODEL/YEAR that pertains to your car rather than leaving them ALL/ALL.

It is my understanding that the front bushings dont wear as fast as the back ones. I could be wrong. I have seen at least one situation where the back ones were toast and the fronts were pristine. Thats why I thought this mix might work?
I have noted your comment about properly posting my car.

Thanks
