I noticed one of mine was busted. And it looks like the whole a-arms had to be swapped out to fix it. So what do you suggest?

You dont have to replace the a-arms to replace the bushing. Steeda sales a set of offset a-arm bushings that improve the front end geometry. But they are a royal pain in the ass to change. I would recomend getting a set of 03/04 cobra a-arms. They improve turning radius and have stiffer bushins than the older sn95 cars. The cheaper rout would be to get new bushings ahnd just replace the. But the much easier way would be the 03/04 cobra complete a-arms. So its up to you depending on how much work you want to put into it.

How is the bushing busted?

I hate to ask a stupid question but you're not talkin about end links, right?

If it is a LCA bushing, I agree that the 3075D's are probably money ahead. I put poly bushings on the fox's arms and regret it (it was long ago. I never even knew about the loaded Motorsport LCA's back then).
By the time you buy bushings (50 bucks for poly, 3 times that for Del-Alum), ball joints, and machine shop time (who wants to burn bushings? Duncan maybe but not the rest of us ), you're throwing good money after bad. Just get the new arms.


On that note I hear Duncan is thinking of opening a mobile LCA bushing repair facility. He will drive around North American in a van and cut off bolts. He might be willing to do wheel spacers two-for-one.
