Front control arm bushings
Hey all,
I just need a quick technical question answered. I am installing the energy suspension front control arm bushings. One side of the bushing is thicker then the other...to offset for caster I think. Which side does the thicker/thinner go on? The old bushings were absolutely hammered and didn't appear to be offset.
Thanks

Had the same prob, my trusty Haynes Manual shows the control arm offset to the front. My bushing kit had two piece bushings for the front so the thicker one goes toward the back. have fun
