I've had my new bike for 2 months and already the lower shock bushing needs to be replaced.

In days gone by the oem top hat mounting gear was crap and I've always replaced with a 'heavy duty' shock mount. The monarch plus shock came with what looks like heavy duty hardware so I'm a bit puzzled why the bushing has failed so quickly.

Is it worth replacing stock mounting hardware with a tf tuned heavy duty kit, a tf tuned low friction mount or sticking with oem mounting but going with a polymer, igus or other bushing?

Cheers!
