    Ever see this type of CAB?



    Just got them in the mail today - they're huge! Looks like the offset is adjustable. The purple slides in and out. Is there a special way to install these?

    kinda looks like the powerflex lollipops, dunno bout the install, should be straightforward.

      Good call, the part number matches up with their website. My concern is that if the purple part slides in and out, the the CA going to keep it in? and why is the bushing twice as big as it should be?

        f if I know, might have gotten a non cut mold. I don't think it should go beyond the lollipop. Can't really help I'm drunk and have treehouse CABS

            Definately a PowerFlex CAB. I helped a friend install a pair on his '90 325is last year. It required a trip to a local shop to have them pressed in. Just be sure you go to someone who knows what they are doing.....my friend didn't and this guy installed one of the bushings backwards. To remove it meant damaging the bushing itself. He had to order an extra one and re-do the whole process the following weekend.

              Jesus guys... Call treehouse, get the new sleeve inserts, THEY WON'T POP ANYMORE.

              We need to make this a sticky. If the little bushing sleeves that are inside the THR brackets are BLACK, then you have the old bushing material. They changed the tolerances with the new WHITE material and there is no popping.

                  Just wanted to vouch for this. I got the new material, and there's not a pop from the bushings any longer!

                  It's GREAT! :D

                    Thanks guys. I actually didn't hear about the new treehouse sleeves 'till after these new bushings were in the mail. Oh wells.

                        I'm waiting on a call back from THR. IMO they should be free, but you know how that goes.

                          Got no call back so I called, told the guy about my bushings, and they're sending me new sleeves - free. I'm probably going to use my powerflex bushings anyway because I live off of a bumpy road.

                            I called them and they said to clean off the control arm with sanding them and put antiseze on the bushing and put them back on. But i kinda want to try the new bushings.

                              I have those exact same CABs. They're great for daily driving and they are adjustable.
