Does anyone know what the deal is with the lower arm bushes with the offset sleeve.
I cannot get my head around them, there is no key or any way to know where the offset should be or how to keep it in the same place and not moving around. And what is the correct orintation of them.
Also what is the point of them ie what do they do.

They allow you to run more caster than normal without deforming the rubbers... I have them in my car, I think they came with instructions

That pretty much how it works. They have little dots (at least my Spares ones do) that show you how to line them up.

"...Also what is the point of them i.e. what do they do...." ? As Simon says.. they allow more caster.

Cheers, Ian
