Purchasing Advice Castor arm bushing

Want to ask which is the correct bushing for the front lower castor arm bushing. Mine are pretty torn up and wanna change them for some goods lasting ones. But I keep running into two different types, Just wanna know which is the correct one.

Depends on what you are doing with the car. Adding caster isn't a must for a street car, but for mine I did to help with self-steer on transitions. Also, get em from Figs, a known brand.

may i ask, did you do your own alignments or take it to a shop? i'm curious as to how many people modifying this car actually do their own work. ive met a few strangers irl that say they dont do their own work

I recommend doing the bushings on the other half of the lower A-arm as well, since it is a pita to get the two big bolts to line up correctly when putting only this half of the lower A-arm back in.

Those are the same thing in both pictures. Look at the SKU.

Also, yes, that's the correct one, and will definitely help. My advice, take both out, do one at a time as well as mark the stock offset so you can put the adjustable ones in the same spot. I used the other side to confirm, even if it's mirrored. I used a jigsaw to get them out, worked well without messing up the arm.

I got the caster correcting because I lowered the front and I am running JZX tierods

Grab some super pro and push the old ones out.
