So... that's all it takes!?! I did do a transmission fluid swap a few months back, and that seems to have fixed it by 75%, but there is still a little rumble. How much work was it to change out the bushings?

It was silly easy, but I did have to get the bushings from Japan. Febest makes them aftermarket but I could only find them via Amazon at around $27 a bushing x 8, it was a little outrageous. The bushings were only a few dollars a piece from Mitsubishi and the shipping was well worth it. Upon inspection my bushings didn't look too bad but the new ones were probably a good 3/4" taller so they did experience significant wear over time. There is also a TSB floating around Australia to remove the vibration damper that hangs off the tcase, you could try that first as it is free. For me it took removal of the damper and the new bushings. Well worth it though, as the vibration made me hate the truck.
I finally got this running again! Has 278K on it so I bought a used 17K motor and rebuilt the trans along with suspension and brakes and such. Not completely done yet but up and running and moving on its own. This is the result of what my wife calls madness but I call being detail oriented. Having your own sandblaster and home powder coating setup leads one to project creep and before you know it you're coating the transmission case and little brake line clips, you know, the things nobody will ever see!

Stock adjustable shocks removed, kyb monomax installed. Huge difference in feel, dampening, and body roll! The stock adjustables still worked, but the were definately worn out. Need to take it off road to see how it performs now!
If you are meaning mine it was $700 with 17,000 miles. It didn't look that nice when I picked it up. The pic below is after all new gasket and rebuilding the heads and such.

today, I fixed my flashing 4x4 light issue with this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ZEKQ7KS
you can put an ohm meter across the terminal and you should get something like 40 ohms
This is the best check list on what to check and how to fix the flashing lights: http://4wd.blogeasy.com/article.view.run?articleID=318776
