Thread: resetting suspension bushes after lowering

  1. #1

    Default resetting suspension bushes after lowering

    im about to lower my mps3 second gen with a set of eibach's, is it necessary to reset the bushes in the control arms etc (by slightly loosening and then re-torquing bolts supporting the bushes) after lowing to help prevent premature wear?

    thanks in advance.

    Good idea to do it but not really needed.

    no need at all. the bushes are designed to rotate on a axis. lowers has no effect on their function.

    Yeah I understand they are designed to move on a rotational axis but wasn't sure if the they were a press fit bushing that didn't rotate in the arms like some bushing setups, and would be in an unstressed state only when they car it at its factory height.
