Default Cool new product for RSX suspension....

Well the other day when I was out at L-Con Fabrication, Louie showed me these spherical bearing inserts he made for RSX lower control arms. Basically this presses in where the stock LCA bushing went and takes out all of the lateral movement in the joint while still allowing it to pivot.

I've been running a similar setup in my EG for about two years now (made by a different company, though) and I love it. It gives the front end a much more direct feel with way more feedback from the tires in corners, and it also basically eliminated wheel hop on hard launches. So I thought I'd show this to all you RSX guys in case anyone is interested.

You can find L-Con at http://www.l-con.net/ - the product is not on their site but you can call about it... (disclaimer: I don't work at L-Con, I just went there for a BBQ )

(this is the display model so it's a little scratched up....)
