powerflex bushings
has any one had any experience with the powerflex caster adjust bushings
im looking into a set as i was speaking to a guy from whiteline suspension and he advised me to add a rear antiroll bar and adjust the caster of the front wheels before i lower it any ,so im going with teh eiback anti roll bar but need to no more about the caster bushing

Re: powerflex bushings
Got them fitted on mine, i've gone about 5º off centre (hole turned towards the outside of the car) which isn't a huge amount but it does make the car feel more stable in the bends. It's on eibach pro kit springs & i've also got eibach pro spacers (20mm front, 25mm rear) so she handles like a dream. Been looking at the steeda rear roll bar but not sure i want to drill the axle (the powerflex rear axle bushes do a good job of reducing roll)

Re: powerflex bushings
ah right cool i was thinking the powerflex caster bushings eibach lowering springs 30mm 15mm rear eibach spacers and 21mm eibach anti roll bar
how much adjustment is there in the caster bushings also are they easy to fit or is it a garage job ?

Re: powerflex bushings
They all make a huge difference to the handling! The caster bushes have a useable 180º adjustment but anything past 5-10º is a bit much (and after 90º the wheelbase gets shorter so more nimble but less stable). I bought a pair of aftermarket wishbones off ebay and used a press to change the bushes, unless you have an acetylene torch to heat them up they're a very tight fit, any good garage should be able to change them in an hour or so though
