Rear Traction Rod Poly Bush Adj Short Or Long

[mrsr32]

my car is on king spring lows.

i've got the kca347 adj poly bush set from whiteline and I've done the camer arm and set that longer to reduce the rear camber.

what length is the traction rod suppose to be?

Adjust both in the same direction.

damn you're quick

I took your advice and replacing my 1 piece poly adj castor rods with hardrace rose jointed ones, didn't want to go pillow ball.

r33 lower front arms with poly bush to get more front camber

and these bushes at the rear as well as repalcing the rear lower arm bushes with polys.

Good stuff. I finally got my solid caster arms back on the car on the weekend. I took it for a 5 minute drive and nearly cried. It was so much nicer on turn in and mid corner grip.

By the way.....rose joints = pillow ball. I'm not sure what you meant in your above post.

i meant mine still has a rubber bush at the front instead of the solid link, it just has the screw in the middle so you can make it shorter than you can with just a poly bush and the eccentric sleeve.

might look at getting the equiv for the rear camber and traction arms if these new bushes in the rear don't give enough adj

Ah, I see. My opinion is that the ability to wind in more caster is less important than the elimination of the squidgy bush. Having said that, I have never had my caster rods in the car without them being adjusted about 10mm shorter than the std rods....so I like and appreciate the extra caster as well.

As for the rear.....if your car is at legal height, you shouldn't need more than the adjustment available from eccentric poly bushes. I only have one set on my car (the inner end of the arms) and my car is just on legal height (proven at the roadworthy inspection 3 weeks ago!!) and my rear camber is just right for daily.

hmm ok, maybe i will change and get some solid castor arms
