    All that is needed is thicker washer under the factory cup. You can remover the factory cup by romoving the center nut, and install a thicker washer under the factory cup to tighten up on the bushing. You can actually adjust your ride by how thick the washer is and is putting pressure on the bushing.
    AN impact wrench mackes removing and reinstalling the center nut a sinch.
