Hello friends,
Does anyone have experience with this part (Bushing center of front control arm) or of any other recommended company?
https://www.powerflex.co.uk/product-...able/2139.html
If I replace only this part, can it cause load / abrasion of other parts (bushings / balljoint) of my vehicle?
In other words: is it possible to replace only this part and leave all other original suspension parts or original OEM replacements?
Thanks

Question is why are you replacing it?
If it's worn, replace the entire arm because the ball joint and inner bushing are probably worn out also, and decent aftermarket versions are not overly expensive.
If you're attempting to adjust caster, I would suggest purchasing the same style of bushing, but from Tarett Engineering. I've never used Powerflex, but have personally used and installed probably 20 or more of the Tarett versions in GT3 control arms while adding aggressive front camber settings.
Or, if you have a worn bushing, and want to adjust caster, install 996 GT3 lower control arms and then you will resolve both by using the second caster adjustment hole.
