Megan Racing Rear Lower Control Arms
 
im thinking of buying some lower control arms for my car.... im getting tokico illumina shocks and h&r sport springs put on my car soon so i fiqured i might aswell get these put in since the installer is gonna be down there anyways..... plus removing the stock shocks from the lca is a ***** and just incase the bushings and what not get ****ed i won't have to worry about it...

but the questions i have are..

does anyone have the Megan Racing Rear Lower Control Arms??? and if so or if not what do you have to say about them??

also what is the benifit of aftermarket lcas besides them being lighter then stock??

i've read they fix camber..... is this true?? and how does that work??

thanx for the help guys

They fix negative camber on some cars because on some cars they're shorter than stock pulling the bottom of the wheel in, not so on civics, same length same camber problem if you had one previously. I like them more than the omnis only for the reason that the bushings are the same as oem so if one goes it's not a problem, omni aren't oem unless they changed them. Teknotik sells the megans at a reasonable price. Benefits, none really other than they look nice and since you drive an eg there's one more benefit being that they have the holes to mount a rear swaybar.

the new omnis are the same as the megans and can use OEM bushings, i have them

so just as i thought..... only benefits being its new and it looks better...

but i'll keep in mind that i should get a set that has bushings that can be replaced with oem ones if it ever comes to a point that i will need to get new ones....

thanx alot guys..

imported_JDMman 26-Jul-2006 07:00 PM

oh... one other thing....

for each lca there is two bolts... does anyone know if i can pick these up new at ct??? or even better questions... where can i pick these up new?? lol.. thanx

kwasley 26-Jul-2006 08:48 PM

imported_SaYjAiBaO 26-Jul-2006 09:29 PM

i would not trust any kind of bushings except for oem and polyurethane bushings. when a lot of people experience problems with the bushings in their lcas do you not stay away from them?
