According to The Merck Manual (14th edition, p 1407) on the 
"by-proxy" variant of Munchausen's Syndrome, "...the parent falsifies 
history and may injure the child with drugs, add blood or bacterial 
contaminants to urine specimens, etc.--all in order to simulate 
disease."

So, Mr Miller:  can we be sure that these are the very same bushings 
as removed from _your_ car?

But seriously, I'm about to order a set of anti-roll bar bushings. 
Are these usually stocked by TPC or just a dealer item?
