    Powerflex Offset CAB

    I purchased the pre-pressed bushings and whoever pressed them in didn't do the best job? You can see that they are pressed in in different orientations, it's my understanding that the offset is supposed to line up with inside of the lolipop, pointing in towards the car. The one on the left seems to be correct while the one on the right appears to be rotated away from center. I'd appreciate clarification from anyone who has installed these before. Thanks.

      They should be identical. The caster is going to different from side to side if you install those. I'm not sure how much.. but I would think youd want your car uniform.

        That is not correct. They should be as you say, towards the mount.

        Usually poly mounts aren't pressed in like the stock rubber ones. They might be a tight fit, but you should be able to get them out and re-orient them. Push the center tube out first.

          I went ahead and contacted powerflex to see what they'd say about them. They said that it didn't seem like there was enough of a variation and that I shouldn't worry about it. Idk, maybe they're right, but i'm going to repress the bushing anyways because if i'm going to put new parts on the car, i'd rather have them be perfect.
