Lower control arms w BMR bushings already installed. Sold by C&D Autotech.

Basically buy their LCAs w new/better bushings, then send back your stock LCAs for a big credit.

With the new tires the new bushings should really tighten up the feel.

---

This step sounds important to get right...

Now, carefully raise up the wheel hub assembly using your jack so that the toe link is parallel with the ground or until just before the car starts lifting off of your support (jack stand or lift arm) DO THIS CAREFULLY! YOU DO NOT WANT TO DROP THE CAR OFF THE LIFT OR STANDS!!!! We need to do this so that the suspension is at or as near as possible to ride height so the bushings in the control arm and links will not be preloaded incorrectly.

I didnt know if it was really an item I would replace, but being a couple years old now and pushing it at the track I think the tighter bushings should help.


W my lift in the garage, shouldnt be too hard to get that part straight.


Havent pulled the trigger on this yet. Still waiting on Ford Racing front hubs w ARP studs to come in and have tow hooks front and rear to install.


Was also considering a driveshaft upgrade, but beside weight dont know if there is much improvement on an IRS car?
