And 3 years later, someone who's had the FE4 front radius links in hand finally takes a good look at what they are.

I've been wondering why the FE3 bushing was so different (and more expensive) than the FE2/FE3/FEA bushing...

The only reason I can think of why GM would do this would be related to NVH, but why and why on the ZL1 and SS 1LE? My thinking is that it must be related to something with the MRC struts: Maybe them being structurally stiffer, accompanied by the spherical-jointed lateral link, required something a bit softer to go on somewhere...

Anyway, thanks for posting up!
