Polyurethane suspension bushings
Anyone know if poly UCA and LCA bushings help with making alignments easier and more consistent? Wheel alignments seem to be a pretty lengthy process using camber plates.

Thanks Ernie,
I get frustrated with alignment shops, it seems every time I want an alignment I have to train the person doing the work, then I get charged for the extra time it takes. I'm using a camber kit, I've had the eccentrics pop out while on the track and it isn't fun. I'm seriously considering doing my own alignments as the costs are becoming prohibitive.

The bushings help keep the arms from deflecting as much (so while cornering it helps keep the alignment where you want it a bit better), but in terms of slipping of the lower adjustment plates, the camber kit is what you need.
If you go with delrin, Borg motorsport makes offset bushings that can get you even more camber
good luck!

We also sell our own camber kit for those who are interested in an upgrade from the OEM hardware.
