is this bad?
 

I got bushings that are woren out, is it bad driving my car? I only drive on paved road and I do not do any off roading so far. The bushings are looking like they are cracked. I know i need to change them soon, but is it bad driving for me?

Need to be a lot more specific. "Worn out bushings" is pretty vague, we dont even know what you drive. Reguardless it should be fine, but you need to actually state the question so it is more easily answered.

Yeah, you could probably make it a long time without anybushings at all.

by woren out i mean they are cracked

What bushing are you talking about? A-arm? Sway-bar? Body mounts?

Um, I think by being more specific he meant which bushings. Upper control arm? lower control arm? Steering rack? sway bar? Shock bushings?

There is a lot to choose from. Plus as mentioned on your other postings you really need to give us more info. Try putting your model and year in your signature including the engine. When posting questions like this get as specific as possible and include pictures if possible. Finally, don't forget the search function...its really easy.

It doesn't hurt to include your location too. Sometimes people notice you are close and offer to help.

From the line across the top border on the Forum, click on "User CP". Click on "Edit Signature". Put some stuff in that box like your rig details then hit "Save Signature". That info will then show up automatically on all of your posts.

the bushings on the shocks

You have to replace the shocks in order to replace the bushings for them. Some surface cracks in the rubber is no big deal, but if they are cracked all the way through, they need to be replaced.

i am thinking of getting new shocks for my car. Which brand should i go with?

If the bushings are worn, the shocks are too. I like Skyjacker nitogen shocks but they are $50 each. If you want to go cheeper go with a generic gas charged shock such as Napa delux shocks (made by Monroe). They are about $80 for 4

How much do you want to spend? Or are you after the best bang for your buck

I am after the best bang for my truck.

It didnt a month ago, when he posted this.

If you are just out for the best deal, go with either the Napa gas shocks or Gabriels from Autozone.
