Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Upper Outer Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 1989-1990 Mazda RX-7 GTUs (FC). Whiteline's note for this fit: To hub adds +/- 1.5 degrees Camber. The kit contains 4 bushings and 2 tubes. Order it as part number KCA379. Position: rear.
Camber is the sideways lean of the wheel when viewed from the front. An offset control arm bushing places the pivot slightly off-center, which shifts the wheel's camber by a small, fixed amount without replacing the arm. On a lowered car that is often enough to bring the tires back toward an even footprint.
Expect a moderate job of about 2 hours. An alignment is required after installation. To go with it on the RX-7, see 12mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing, and Tie Rod Boot Kit.
Features
- Material: Built from polyurethane.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
- Corrosion protection: Rust protection comes from plating on the metal parts.
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
- Finish: Powder coating covers the metal for protection against chips and rust.
- Camber adjustment: Aims to keep camber in an effective range as the body rolls.
