Default Lower Control Arm Offset Bushings.

Has anybody ever used Lower control arm offset bushings? They fit in the front of the lower control arm and pull the lower control arms forward..

Thank you,
Jeff

Wow, never saw that before. What is the purpose of that offset? What is the goal?

Thats what I'm hoping for PT-79. I have about 3 to 3.5 positive caster now. I got that by grinding a 1/4" off the upper control arm shafts at the front bolt. If I add anymore to the top the front tires may hit the inner fenders.

I'm swaping in a set of 58-62 upper control arms, they have solid bushings.
