How long will body mount bushings last?

[dhinch279]

Here are a few of my body mount bushings, some are worse than others, but my general question is am I in any real danger of driving on them? I don't feel any excessive movement so I don't think so, but I just wanted to get the opinion of some other people who have dealt with the same problem.

I am eventually going to swap out the bushings for some polyurethane mounts and a 3" body lift, but I drive it everyday and I just don't want anything to get messed up worse. Thanks for the help

There's a article in the tech library on this with a similar truck. http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/bodymount_lift.htm I don't think that worn out bushings will cause any damage but the ride quality will suffer a little.
