JXB Front Lower Control Arm Bushings For VW/Audi MQB

The JXB Front Lower Control Arm Upgrade is the only kit to replace both factory bushing locations with precision motorsport grade PTFE-lined spherical bearings for a no compromise front end solution.

The front lower control arm bushings are responsible for maintaining the alignment of the front end under all driving conditions.  The factory bushings are soft and flexible, causing unwanted toe-in and camber loss during braking and turning.  The spherical upgrade increases the precision, responsiveness, and feel of the front end:

• Inspires more confidence in corners
• Delivers better road feel and steering feedback
• Holds alignment under load
• Does not bind
• Eliminates random oscillations to increase grip
• Set of 4 Bushings
• CONTROL ARMS ARE NOT INCLUDED

WHY SPHERICAL?

Rubber bushings act like little springs at each suspension pivot point.  They allow suspension geometry to change under load, ruining your alignment and causing unwanted handling characteristics like steering wander, binding, camber, caster, and toe changes, and lack of steering and suspension feedback.  Spherical bearings do not bind or flex under load, creating perfect suspension joints.  

CASTER-CORRECTING OPTION

Choose the caster-correcting option to receive our offset rear bushings, which increase caster by approximately 1°.  The increase in caster increases much-needed front end grip by increasing negative camber on the outside wheel and decreasing negative camber on the inside wheel during cornering (basically leaning the wheels into the turn).  Please note that the the caster correction does push the wheel slightly forward in the wheel well which may cause tire clearance issues on aggressively stanced or lowered cars.
