How much is the offset? Just guessing, it looks like 3 or 4 mm. That would be plenty to deal with nearly any alignment caused steering pull in these cars. If these won't fix it, there is something bent.

offset is 5mm, the highest we can go without contacting the airbag.

Thanks for clarifying! I was thinking each bushing was separate.

So it's $150 for direct OEM spec and $50 extra for the one with +/- 0.75 degrees


Quick Reply: Finally, bushings for the front upper control links
