    I remember fixeruperer and a few guys on toymods had issues with ovaling out the holes that the lower 4 link arms attached to. I don't remember if they had solid links but that's something to think about too.

    I personally prefer at least one bushed end. I just put harder bushes in my standard arms since I'm too cheap to buy whiteline arms or half/half arms from the likes of Battle version or Cusco. Let's face it, we aren't racing in some competitive series like IPRA or ADGP nor are we going for world record lap times like bazda. Just trying to keep the car nice enough to drive and have fun in and together enough so it lasts through several track days without something breaking. and so, is that stuff absolutley necessary to blow your money on?

    I run half bush half rose joint in the rear of my car as class rules stipulate no rear firewall mods can be done (no equal length)

    Maybe on circuits and on cars with IRS complete rose jointing is the best option

    but with an unequal 4 link, the binding in the top left with all rose joints is terrible, a lot of mid corner speed can be picked up with bush end (at least of hillclimb/tarmac rally stuff) where the road surface is constantly changing and the suspension is higher and has more articulation than a dedicated circuit car
