On the 08', I didn't notice the harshness in the rear end. The vehicle had only 4k miles on it when I had it done, so maybe it was less noticeable because it was so new. The 08' was done prior to a TSB being issued that included a fix for the 08'. This is why they did the shaft and the control arms instead of just the shaft.

I think that I got it wrong what I was feeling. It is exactly what you say and not the steering. It is the ride that is a bit harsher. Did you say this "loosened up" over time?
