I installed the new bushings last night. Wow is there a big difference! I can feel each gear so much better. There is no side to side slop like there used to be. It had over an inch of side to side slop I'd have to guess. Every movement is much more direct. I really like it.

I wrote up a DIY here: http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...ent-31603.html

Also, if any other Metro owners are interested, I'd be happy to print you up a set. Just shoot me a PM.
