Re: Traction bars --- KL & BP
The arc of the LCA angle under full compression & full drop (with suspension connected) is less then the total misalignment allowable @ the hiem joint.
I think you need a better understanding of how the hiem joint is working. I'll post some more pictures of the connection @ the control arm.

In any given situation with bushing flex there is allowed SOME LCA shifti...

Traction bars --- KL & BP
Here's a real design for the community. These actually work!!! As opposed to that horizontal design along the LCA which physically cannot actually aid in increasing traction in a forward line. im simply baffled by how the previous seller could have gotten away with selling a part like that & cal...

Re: [GI] Spherical Front LCA bushings- TEASER THREAD
The offset rear bushings induce positive castor. --this dramatically improves the front end stability of the car & ride comfort. The only Downside to this is some increased steering input @ slow speeds- I.E. parking lots/turning out of your driveway. With the elimination of LCA spring load from ...
