My stock rear control arms' bushings are bad. I want to just get a whole new set. Anyone have opinions or experience w/any certain brand?

 

beaks

 

didnt know beaks made lcas

 

Could just replace the bushings, but IM thinking that requires a press. Can get some blox for about 100. Would have new bushings and look nice. But if you have access to a press just replace the bushings, would be cheaper and would feel the same as an aftermarket one.

 

none of the aftermarket arms are any good.

except function 7. but you really shouldnt consider buying them unless you can really eek out the performance on track (probably not you) or just want to throw your money away on expensive and shiny parts (maybe you, maybe not).

stick with stock OEM arms. i bought a pair for $130 shipped a number of years ago. i heard they might be discontinued, i havent verified. and you can always just press in new bushings separately.

there is no benefit to aftermarket arms and ive yet to see a better rubber bushing than OEM.

 

According to some, the bling factor and mediocre bushings out weight OEM standards. Im not referring to myself.

 

I'm not trying to highjack your thread or anything but i'm confused... i was pretty posative you have to get aftermarket rear lower control arms when u get aftermarket coilovers... is this true or can i use my stock lca's?? Just wondering cuz i don't want to waste money on aftermarket lca's if i can just press in new bushings on my stockers cuz mine are bad too.

 

False false false, thats like saying, "I cant get aftermarket LCA's because i have stock shocks!".

I've heard that some LCA's remove some negative camber on lowered cars, but thats about all...plus, we all know camber dont cause tire wear.
