    Whiteline suspension LCA bushings.

    I was thinking of changing out my lower control arm bushings for whiteline ones and wonder if anyone else had done the same modification.

    Also there is a option to increase caster by.75 degrease. Does anyone know what the real benefit of doings this would be one the handling of the car?

    I don't know if the Supaloy controls fit your car, but if they do you can kill two birds with one stone
    They have better bushes already, and provide anti lift and more caster
    I have them in my Octavia VRS - they have eliminated alxe tramp (during fast take off)
    and provided a little crisper turn in and little more high speed stability

    I've made numerous modifications to my car, many of which are really hard to justify
    The supaloy controls arms are in the group of modifications that represent value for money and provide benefits

    Sadly they don't. I was only asking because I added a rear sway bar to my polo and was amazed at how much better it preformed in the corners. And am planning to change the front bushes as well but I have a choice of OEM or additional caster. Was just looking for advice on which one to go with. And was extra caster really worth it.
