Product Details
This Whiteline Front Upper Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 1997-2003 Audi A8 Quattro. The listing names the Quattro trim. It goes on the front of the vehicle. Whiteline's note for this fit: Adds 0.5 degrees Camber. Part number KCA420. Included: 4 shell bushings and 4 tubes.
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 3 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward.
Features
- Corrosion protection: Rust protection comes from plating on the metal parts.
- Self-lubricating: Built-in grease reservoirs provide continual lubrication and reduce friction.
- Bushing compound: Oil, grease, ozone, and weather do not break down the synthetic elastomer used in the bushings.
- Finish: The metal parts are powder coated for durability.
- Camber adjustment: Helps hold the tire flatter on the road by correcting camber changes through roll.
- Material: Built from polyurethane.
