Aftermarket? Omnis are nice imo. Only $104 shipped. Be aware that bushings that come in most aftermarket lcas are not that good. I would replace them with oem, or poly, etc...

What is wrong with ur stock lca???

if it isn't bent...why change it???

you save about 2.5lbs only...

unless ur building a serious track car, you don't need to change em..
------------

now ur bushings is another story...

if u are going to replace ur bushings with poly ones... make sure u lube em correctly or they won't last too long...

OR

install a greese zerk in ur lca.. by drilling and tapping one into it... that way u can re-greese the poly bushing with greese to prolong their life.

the poly bushings without lube, sorta stick to the metal...and twist then tear...

i think the rubberones.. don't stick as much.. so thats why they last longer without constant lubing...

----------
i don't really know for sure.. its just from what i've read...

cause some ppl say that poly sucks and hard rubber is way better...

but then i found this: http://www.k20a.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5952

i don't know if u want to or if u can drill and tap aftermarket lcas.. but u can give it a shot...

but really why do u need to change the lca if it isn't broken...

well yhea because mah exhaust wasnt done right its kinda scoring the top of mah control arm then both of dem the bushins gone since i put in disc brakes that was the biggest pain in the *** **** snapping so why bother replacing the old one might as well get a better and durable one the aftermarket is thicker n e waiz then the stock one you know

i think ur a lil too drunk to type....

well if ur lcas are damaged...then replace them.

never said don't replace them

just if ur going to put poly bushings.. figure out a way to install some greese zerks into the lcas...
