Hi everyone, I just brought my car to a local specialist for a steering and suspension check and I was advised that my front upper control arms bushes are broken ( yea I can slightly feel my steering is a bit soft). Now I’m thinking to get the Superpro upgrades kit online by myself but I’m not sure which ones I should get? The whole brand new Superpro upper control arm assembly kits ($395/pair) or just the Superpro bushes ($190/pair)? The local mechanic would charge me $350 for the labour if I bring my own brand new control arms. Otherwise it would be more than $900 if they supply me the parts (Superpro-Control Arm Lower Assembly Kit and Superpro Control Arm Upper Assembly Kit - Polyelast Bushes) + $550 labour. I prefer high quality products that can last very long. What do you guys think? Cheers.

Ok I have a 3rd buddy buying now looking/buying a xr6t (ute). Went looking today at one and he is pretty keen on this FG . Thing is all door panels line up nicely but where the front pillar joins the front right guard it looks a bit odd ? also the bonnet shut line is larger on this side (passenger) We have checked all the welds, and the lower chassis brace (front end) and upper all seem to look "aged" and appropriate. Anyways on the way home we stopped at a ford dealer and it seems with FG's that a lot were like this and QC isn't the same on each car Any thoughts fellow forum pals.

Hi guys! Just fitted an adjustable camber kit to the front of my BA Turbo. Have it set at max neg camber just to see how much I can get for track work then I'm gonna set it up for street duties as this is where it spends most of its time. Took it for a quick spin last night and omg what a difference it has made, totally transformed the car! Feels so much more responsive and grippy at the front end and could not get it to push even going around a large roundabout that's off camber doing 60kph!! Before you could feel it roll on its outer edge of the tire and couldn't push much harder. My question is, in these cars how does adjusting camber affect toe settings? I hope to have a little toe in when its set to about -1.5 camber but will increasing my neg camber dial in more toe in or toe out? I'm thinking because the tie rod is at the rear of the wheel assembly it will cause it to toe out when neg camber increases...I'm hoping this is the case Can anyone verify this?
