    Thank you AKG motorsport, F IE!!!

    Well after 2 different types of trailing arm bushings from IE didnt fit, i was beginig to think that i messed up the subframe when I installed the camber and toe correction kit. I decided to try the AKG's and sure enough, they actaully fit!!!!!!!!

          I have the AKG adjustables, and they are fantastic. I use the best alignment shop in Atlanta (they do all the Ferrari alignments as well, including the Ferrari race cars), and he says they are a much better design than the K Mac's.

                    is there a known problem with IE TA bushings NOT fitting?

                      They fit, but they dont want to go in without a fight. You just have to use grease and alot of muscle.

                        That and they squeak pretty bad if you don't lube them LIBERALLY, as in putting the whole bushing in a bucket of grease, along with the insides of the TA and around the metal tube that goes in the bushing.
