My experience has been, if the stock cups and bushings suck, it only gets worse, not better. I can see why people don’t mess with the cups from a laziness standpoint. If you don’t have some needle nose pliers handy, holy shit it’s a pain in the ass. Unless it’s those new China Indy’s, there’s no truck out there that I haven’t had to at least put some different bushings in so they feel right.
