here it is. 2002 Scream with Shivers, NS DH's, and an old school Suntour XC Pro top mount shifter for the front.

Monet called. He wants his work of art back.

Thanks Gandi. If he can lift 50lbs of sculpted metal and rubber he can paint it again.

Bushings? Where? It's my impression that the whole thing rolls on bearings. The only bushings that I know of are the Fox shox ones. After a year and bit of riding it's still as solid as day one.

Yeah the top mount is the tits. Indestructable and considering you really don't shift the front very often it's perfect.

mine has bushings at all pivots except the main swingarm pivot. I just got mine a few days ago. If the older one is bearings and mine is bushings, then Im pissed

.

Maybe it's some weird combo

Are you sure about that? There are caps with allen bolt holes that cover the bearings. The only bushing that the scream has are some delrin washers that separate moving parts.

would these be white and between the rocker and the mainframe, the rocker and the seat stay and the seat stay and the swingarm? If it's bearing I'm stoked!

That's them (the washers that is). It's all bearing goodness my fellow banshee brother.
