    eccentric or not? *oem trailing arm bushing*

    Hi there,

    I'm planning of changing my trailing arm bushing and was confuse between getting the eccentric one or the normal one? Fyi, i'm only 'dd'ing my car.
    So any suggestion? what's the difference between both of them?

    If the car is just a daily driver, the plain OE bushings should be all you need. The exception would a car that has been lowered significantly. In which case you may need eccentric bushings or weld in adjusters to compensate for the camber and toe gain from lowering.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      I have a h&r and blistein setup, so it's ok just to use the non eccentric ones. Am I right? Sorry I'm still learning bout all the suspension thingy :)

              Generally IE3's are the lowest and create the most camber.

              I have them and I'm doing the full weld in kit with Poly's

                  how bad would the wear be if it's rotated properly with OE bushings... i've already bought a set, would it be in my best interest to go at least with polly bushings?
