Default Which LCA's..

What brand of lca's do you guys recomend going with...my car is lowered, has an adj tq arm, and lca re-location brackets...makes about 450+whp.

I have a set of spohn lca's(non-adj) installed now, but after 2000-2500km's, the poly bushings are shot for some reason...has this happened to anyone else??

You should be able to rebuild you lower control arms with new bushings. They will typically wear out like that is a traditional petroleum-based grease is used to lubricate the bushings, as opposed to the synthetic grease we suggest to our customers. Petroleum based greases will eat away at the bushings and cause them to break-down much faster than they should.

If you can't get some rebuild bushings, PM me and I'll check the dimensions of our bushings. They may for you.

Like the BMR sponsor said, you should be able to get some replacment bushings. You cant go wrong with any of the sponsored LCA's. I myself like UMIs stuff but i also have BMR Swaybars. I have UMI non-udjustable LCA's but will be going to adj's eventually. want to swap mine to roto-poly seteup.
