I got the Elephant Racing bushing in and they did exactly as advertised. The RSS toe links would make it easier to adjust the toe as the 18mm nut for the stock toe adjustment arms are is hard to get to and the the eccentric adjustment less than smooth. It looks like the RSS arms are also designed for the bump steer compensation. So i went the economy route, the RSS links would definitely be nicer.

The aluminum center bushing looks off center but it is not, it is just the camera angle. Considerably less rubber in the Elephant bushing Vs the stock ones

Third-reef,

Thanks for posting the picture with the bushing installed and providing your feedback. I'm leaning towards just replacing the bushings since it will correct the problem.

Thanks for the H&R / B8 review.

When installing the Bilstein B8s, do they come with spring perches? Or do they require the stock perches?

Thanks.
