Product Details
This Whiteline Front Lower Inner Rear Control Arm Bushing Kit - Double Offset fits the 2015-2026 Volkswagen Golf/GTI. Part number KCA499. In the box: 2 shell bushings. Placement: front. Whiteline's note for this fit: Adds 1.0 degrees positive caster.
A standard bushing only restores what the factory built. This one is designed to change the geometry, adding positive caster and changing front anti-dive behavior, in addition to resisting the deflection that soft rubber allows.
Expect a difficult job of about 4 hours. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Golf/GTI: Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arm Set, Adjustable Sway Bar Vehicle Link Kit, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit.
