GAUGING INTEREST, SWAYS, STEERING RACK BUSHINGS and CAB( control arm bushings)

**RaceComp Engineering** · 06-19-2009, 12:41 PM

Simple thread. We are working on sways. Front is done and being tested by a few beta's. Rear is almost done. We also have steering rack bushings in the works and front control arm bushings too.

Wanted to get some feedback from you guys.

CA bushings made a difference. I saw no change in steering response with the SR bushings FWIW. The biggest improvement I saw in steering response was adding .5 degrees of caster

most def want a set of sways.

I would gamble that RCE sways would be top notch. Their springs certainly are!

Damon · 06-19-2009, 02:19 PM

yup, i <3 my springs muy mucho. i just need a good alignment now.

How would all of these differ from whiteline's products? Better, cheaper, cooler looking?

I'd like to see some Delrin or PTFE CA and rack bushings. Aluminum rack bushings would work also. Several others are already doing poly bushings, I'd like to see a more hardcore alternative.

I am not much on "better" more so I like offering options. In the last year we have had ALOT of request about steering rack bushings so I figured I would mention it. As for "looks"? Ours will be black and wont stand out like the brand you mentioned. Price about the same.

Based on the quality and price of the RCE Regular Guy springs I would be interested in RCE sways for the GR as well. If they are of equal quality as the Whiteline sways, then I would prefer to buy from an American manufacturer.

depending on quality and time of release, i might be interested
