Title: Superpro vs Whiteline
Post by: nickguzzi on April 17, 2011, 04:20:48 pm

HI,
Somewhat rashly, I bought the Superpro bushes and now I'm not sure....  Does anyone have the Superpro SPF3273K bushes (their alternative to Whiteline ALK) fitted?  If so what orientation did you use? Antilift, ie eccentric hole to the bottom, or caster, with the hole offset to the outside.  I contacted SP and they just sent me the same info as was included in the pack.   I was wondering if people had thoughts as to which was the most desirable characteristic to go for.  If it is any relevance, its on a diesel and I was trying to reduce understeer, rather than having trouble with traction.
Has anyone driven the two to compare? 
Thanks

Powerflex also make a similar set for about half the price of super pro, Hmmm.

I dont think they do the offset front control arm bush for the additional camber though.
