This **** is so frustrating, i thought it was a fucked up rear subframe so i changed it out, got it aligned and now its the same ****. Car also sits lower on that corner.

heres the alignement sheet. Seems like i have alot of caster up front on the right side.

Bad bushings seem pretty obvious.

Already replaced both bushings and tried different control arms. Ive literally bought every bushing for that side of the car at this point. Replaced a spindle, longbolts, arms, bushies, cam bolts. All of it. I keep having this issue.

Thats kind of what rubber does. What tires are you running?

Well i have 2 sets of wheels. Some all seasons and then i have some 200 treadwear nexens. This has been happening for a long time now, are you saying its normal? The cam bolts arent even all the way toed in like you might expect. The leading cam bolt is dead center and the trailing cam bolt is rotated clockwise as if its giving the tire a toe out.

Sean is your car noticeably lower on that corner by any chance?

How are you installing the bushings? are you using any lube? Did you clean out the old rubber?

I used a big socket and long bolt with washers. Holes were really clean so i just sprayed the new bushings with hairspray. Not sure if that **** is a meem or not. Also i made sure to tighten the arms down once they had the vehicle weight on them.

In our pms i assumed you read my build, i didnt put the user names together with this thread. I just so happen to have a rear corner low as of this weekend, but not because of stock bushings. That pic is at least 2 years old. I swapped to poly and delrin the day I took that pic. About half the bushings in the car slid like that after running 200 TW tires on the car for the first time in its life at 145k. Normal? not sure for new bushings, but for used on 200TW or better, it seems to be normal. When you realize the only thing holding the bushings in is a 0.030" rubber press fit, you wonder how they held at all, even on all seasons. the flanges don't do **** either, they easily just fold or tear, or wear away.
