Whiteline KCA434 can reduce anti-dive?
I'm swapping my front control arm bushings for Whiteline KCA434 and W0509. I was talking to a friend and he suggested that it should be possible to change the anti-dive geometry by stacking the two outer bushings together at the top of the control arm, similarly to the Jackson Racing Anti-Dive Kit. This should achieve a similar effect of lowering the position of the control arm.
Has anyone tried something like that? I sent an email to Whiteline as well with this question and will report back with their response. |

Might have too much deflection.

Also not sure how much the mounting bolt would like having the sheer load put on it like that with having two bushings there.

Good points. I probably won't attempt it if no one else had any experience and Whiteline either don't respond or respond that they do not recommend it.
The only silver lining is that trying it out won't involve pressing the big metal part of the bushings (which is a huge pain), and can be done without removing the control arm from the knuckle (just from the car). |

Whiteline did not respond, but I think it would be a bad idea. When installed on the car and in full droop the two outside bushings are the ones allowing the control arm to pivot. Without them I'm not sure how well the arm will move (if at all). The top bushing is squished in the opposite direction, so both would be needed, IMO.
