Since i have done a ton of reading on this, and wanted to do it i wanted to talk about this with you guys.
I know Chris and some others have done the swap from ix to I bushings on the rear subframe to help correct the geometry when lowered.
my car is lowered, obviously its the standard H&R/Billie HD combo.
Problem is with this done to it the rear alignment is not ideal.
Goal is to raise the subframe to restore the original ish angle of the semi trailing arms to correct the alignment and maybe not destroy tires.
What i know so far is that I will need a pair of I sub frame bushings and to space the diff down the same amount that the sub frame is raised in the chassis.
Sources point to this is about .300 of a inch.
Rev shift sells diff spacers that are a bit too tall, thats fine, its a decent kit they support E30s and i can ask them or i can cut them down on my lathe
the real question becomes what do i do for the washers on the sub frame when doing all this work?
Has anyone done this and done a how to, or has any experience to help me though it.
I just want to not destroy tires anymore and maybe have the car handle a bit better.
I was hoping that this would be the ideal solution but if its not ill have to pull the subframe again and buy the adjuster kit to see if that will solve the issue once and for all.
This is one of the threads i read that talked about the washer/spacer that had to do with the sub frame bushing.
