Default Skunk2 rear camber kit replacement bushings ...

Recently picked up an 06 Si with a few minor modifications, one of which is a Skunk2 rear camber kit. The bushings are absolutely shot and will need to be replaced. I guess the easiest thing to do would be to get replacement bushings from Skunk2, but I wanted to see if anyone had any other/better recommendations. Just let me know what you're using and what you think of them. Thanks in advance.

Is there any way to tell if the bushings are shot without removing the camber kit? I've had the Skunk2 camber kit on for a while now and have heard of a few people having their bushings crap out on them.

I can't really tell on mine just by looking at them though.

What are the symptoms if they're worn out?

op, u need to call skunk2 and explain to them what happened. i called them and they sent me new bushings free of charge.

rico, u can look underneath the car. but u can tell if you look at the rear and u have more negative camber than before, or if there is a clunking noise.

there is a more durable bushing that you can replace yours with but it is $$$...maybe like 200? i remember it being a ridiculous price. i think skunk2 has decided to warranty they part btw.

Thanks for the input everyone. I think I'm just going to see about getting replacements straight from Skunk2.
