🔧 Enhance Vehicle Stability with Whiteline KCA399 Rear Control Arm Bushing in Sleek Black Finish Review

The parts assemble easily after pushing the old bushing out of the top of the rear knuckle. I greased the bushing inside and inserted the camber bushing. Fixed the collapse issue.

The lowered springs on the Subaru Legacy 2002 wagon caused quite a lot of negative camber in the rear. There is no setting option in the production version. This kit allowed my shop to adjust the rear camber. If you are planning on lowering your car or even want to change your rear camber, this kit should come in handy. It could be homemade. Pulling out the old bushings is the most difficult task.

Installation is 10,000 times easier than factory sockets. Too bad I didn't order the inner bushings. The first order I received was defective as it contained the wrong part. I contacted whiteline and they sent a new kit straight away, it's fine, in the aftermarket world it can be a lot worse. I added 1/2 space in the rear of the car with overdrive springs to fix the sagging rear end in my Outback and that reduced camber a bit. This kit made setup easy after installation.

The hardest part of doing this on a Subaru is getting the old bushings out. The easiest way I can think of is to use a ball joint press that I bought from Port Freight many years ago. Take a look around for a walk (this process is the same regardless of the vehicle). These bushings were easy to install. You can just install them manually. Just lubricate them and put them in. Once the urethane pieces are in place, take the C-clip and insert the insert. these are square in themselves. Bought them

Fits my 2005 Subaru Legacy Wagon GT, great for rear camber adjustment, thinking about sagging the rear springs. The bushings were the same as any other Whiteline bushings I've bought. Came as usual with good instructions, lubrication and a sticker. When installing, be liberal with lube, set the adjustment bushing close to where you want it, and be sure to press the suspension against the shock bumper to align the arm so the bolt goes in more easily. I found them very stiff, almost unadjustable,

Requires a press to remove old bushings. They're also easy to press with a decent vise. Lubricate WELL and then add additional lubricant. Or they squeak and you have to take them apart and re-lube them. You really need a press to get the old bushings out, you can get the rubber part out but the metal bushing needs a pretty good press. A 20-ton HF soil press, which costs around $150-$160 according to the coupon, really makes the job easier. To reattach the lever, I bolted the inner end of the…
