I took this picture from someone else..hope you dont mind



that litttle arm pictured broke on my del sol. What would cause this to break? I have a full energy suspension bushing kit, lowered on eibach springs, and no rear sway bar. Do they make aftermarket arms like this? or do I have to replace it with another stock one?

I want something stronger so I dont have to replace it again, the oem seems very thin and weak and so are the mounting points on the car itself. Any ideas?

 

I've never seen or heard of the compensator arm breaking. Where exactly did it break? There are a few aftermarket arms out there that allow you to adjust toe without having to break that bolt free and slide it back and forth - instead, the length of the arm is adjustable, but stock would do just fine.

 

You can either replace it with stock, or you can call up SPC and have them send you one of their replacement adjustables. Super High Quality and great customer service in my experience.

 

it broke around one of the bushings. So the arm is split 90%/10%

 

To the OP, if you have the RTA bushing in polyurethane, than it could be binding (depending on ride height, spring rate, etc...), which could put additional strain on the compensator arm. Rubber or a spherical is the best solution for that bushing.
