CAB question

[ohthejosh]

What's the advantages of the m3 offset CABs over regular ones?

And what would be the best replacement, poly, delrin, oem, etc?

Offset bushings increase caster, which causes an increase in high speed stability. On a street car, or a mostly street car, the best choice is the offset solid rubber M3 parts. On a race car, delrin.

Awesome! Exactly what i wanted to know.

IMO if you have the cash get treehouse eyeball arms. Install is a freaking breeze compared to the stock lolipops. I love em. They are offset just like the M3 bushings. A little pricey though.

Im with this guy.

They have been known to squeak but no more than any other poly bushing. They are super easy to install and they last a very long time. Im pretty sure Treehouse also sells replacement inserts for them in case you ever need it. I know a guy who used the same treehouse arms on three different car. Each time it was a simple 20 minute job

I've never heard mine squeak. Between them and my poly engine mounts I think NVH has increased significantly though. They feel awesome, very direct feedback from the road.

I dont think I wanna do all that considering its just for a daily driven street car. Maybe if I decide to make my car into a more track dedicated car I'd be willing to shell out more moolah for parts like that. Otherwise just wondering about advatanges of the basic OEM replacements that are inexpensive.

Thanks for the heads up tho!
