About to order some rcf/gsf lca bushings and wanted to know if anyone has ordered/installed different size for the driver and passenger side. Like a 0 for one side and +20 for the other. I’m asking because I had one alignment guy tell me caster needs to be +.5/.7 higher in pasenger side due to road crown surfaces. So I was originally going to buy only a +20 for the passenger side but since I’m going to upgrade to the gsf bushings I’m going to do a pair/both driver and passenger and wanting to know if k should buy them staggered a 0 for the drivers side and +20 for the passenger side. My car is lowered on bc coilovers, has anyone bought and installed staggered/different sizes for the passenger and drivers side or is it best to just buy the same (offset) size for both.
Also can anyone recommend a place to buy/order from for the best price/fastest shipping
Thanks in advance

I installed these on a 3rd Gen. There might be some useful info there for you. The seller, in Japan, was way cheaper than in the US.

Thanks for sharing the thread, I did read and a lot of useful info on the install as well as user feedback of the bushings. Still not sure if I should buy one +20 for passenger side and a 0 for drivers side and if anyone has done this/if it’s ok. Or should I purchase both the same and make them 0 /maybe the new bushing will make up for some toe/castor (that was/may be) in old. Bushing i

I'm not an alignment expert but I'd replace the bushings with the same off-set that the current one's have (you can tell by the color of the dots on the housing). If you trust your alignment specialist, than maybe go with his recommendation. I never heard what he suggested, but then again, I'm not an expert. I don't know if your lowered car with bc coilovers has an affect on offset. My car is stock and the bushings really tightened things up.
Once you decide what you need, the Ebay seller in Japan sells the real deal at a reasonable price.
Good luck.

Thank you for the response and help. I will get from the seller you mentioned on eBay. Please include his username again. Also I don’t think I’m gonna mix the 2 bushings, just get 1 size for both driver and passenger. Is there another way to tell what’s in my car now besides a color on the bushing like maybe via vin? I was underneath my car (at alignment place) and I didn’t see any color on the bushing. If no way to tell I think I may just go with zero.

Have been running 48075-24080/48076-24050 for about 4 months now on my lux spec 4gs350. Suspension feels tighter over bumps. Steering turn in 'feels' a tad faster. So far very happy with it. Got both from Amayama for USD22.71 each and shipping was USD22.47 to my part of the woods.
