I think the bushing method would be quite harsh in the woods. Usually you see that on MX/SX forks. All I have done is swap the rigid .3mm checkplate shims with something that can flex after it hits the tap. This is then setup with much less float than the full checkplate. Seems to work well in mixed conditions. The checkplate is fine in pure hell rides (slow rocks) but I like what I have now better when things open up and it still works great in the rocks.
