Will new upper control arm bushings help?
Now that I got my Hardrace bushings, I was wondering if there was any point in replacing the upper control arm bushings, both front and rear. I guess they would help reduce camber changes under hard cornering. Then again, so would the LCA bushings. Anybody tried stiffer than stock UCA bushings, and did they make a difference?

I use the Orijin Motorsports upper and lower kit. So far, I have had no issues, but, since I replaced a bunch of bushings at one time, no way to narrow down how much they specifically helped.

The upper arms are not big levers, and deflection in those areas should be minimal, not enough to warrant replacing the rubber with a more expensive option like poly or spherical IMO.

i just ordered Orijin Motorsports upper and lower control arm bushings/spherical bushings kit.
