Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Whiteline Front Control Arm Bushing W51710 - Enhanced Performance, Black by Andrew Schreider

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Increases NVH, strengthens steering

I bought this to replace leaking bushings on my 97 Legacy Wagon. The car would have very obvious problems with wandering rain grooves and ruts - when I first noticed this I stopped thinking the wheel was going to fall off. It wasn't until later that I realized the source of the problem was the rain rutted highway I was driving on. I could pop out the old ones and pull in the new ones for $15 a bushing. The Whiteline bushings improved steering response - I turned the wheel earlier and the car lagged behind my steering as the bushings had run out of play. The bushings also greatly improved rain groove deflection and tramlines. Now it is almost unknown. But I can feel and hear every bump or bump in the road. This will probably improve over time, but I wouldn't recommend them to anyone who wants a comfortable daily driver. If I wanted to increase NVH I would order Whiteline KCA375 Camber Kits or WHITELINE FRONT ARM - LOWER INNER REAR BUSHING (ANTI-LIFT/CASTER CORRECTION) COMFORT KCA361. I would give 3.5 stars if I could.
