Front control arm bushing noise and re-indexing
I have a squeaky noise coming from the front and I was told that this might be the front control arm bushing and they can be re-indexed.
How many of you have had the same thing happened with coilovers after a few track days? And is it really easy to re-index the bushings? I am not even familiar with the term "re-indexing" :) Would an aftermarket bushing (whiteline or etc) be a worthwhile upgrade ? Thanks in advance |
I'm only guessing since the term is foreign to me too, but I would think they mean loosening the bolts that hold the LCA to the subframe off a bit, then re-torquing them with the weight of the car on the wheels (sitting at normal ride height).
I did my rears when I installed my springs, but not the fronts and don't have any noises, but it's worth giving it a shot. |

You can put the jack stands under the control arms to support the car, or find a shop that'll do it for cheap (should take 5 minutes if they have an alignment hoist).
