Maybe I was just lucky... I believe I only had 4-5 track days on them at that point. I'd have to check my notebook.
So it didn't break, the bushings just gave out? Not like the arm cracked in half or welds failed. The back 2 on each arm or the front one?

Can Somebody Explain to a suspension noob what the hell replacing one arm for another helps? I understand the camber arms... but what's all this other business in there??
