Moog Upper Control Arm Problem Solver Bushings

[ksierens]

Has anyone actually used these? Do they make that much difference in handling?

[HP_Cuda]

Are you talking about the offset ones?

[ksierens]

Yes, the ones that allow you to get additional positive camber.

[HP_Cuda]

Yep I used them and got additional caster out of them.

Word to the wise, the instructions that come with them are confusing and are backwards. Check online or I believe someone has gone through it here.

They were traditionally used for cars that got into accidents - believe it or not.

[BIGSHCLUNK]

Unless you have an alignment issue ... you don't need them . And yes I do run them... but didn't need them either

They don't improve handling, per say, but they contribute to improved angles of operation.  They can accomplish a couple of things, but not at the same time. Installed per the instructions, they provide extra camber. Installed in an alternative way, they can provide more caster.

Extra camber can help keep the tire perpendicular to the road if your car generates a fair amount of body roll.  Extra caster can improve return to center of the steering, add resistance to the steering feel, and improve higher speed stability.

After installing them in my Cuda for maximum caster I wouldn't build another Mopar without them, particularly given the tires we have today, my Cuda is more stable at 190 mph than my 2013 Benz on backroads, my tire wear is better than I have ever had as well

190? 

[RUNCHARGER]

I put them in all my cars as well. It's too hard to get decent caster without them.

Katfish, are these the instructions that came with the bushings, or the ones online that other said are correct?

That's the proper way to install them. It's opposite the instructions in the box.

I have installed these on several on my Mopars and love em!

Correctamundo!

[jt4406]

  I have installed these in my car TWICE. First set lasted about a year, then began squeaking on the passenger side! I replaced the squeaking bushings on the passenger side, solved that problem, for about 3 months, then the driver side started squeaking. Replaced the driver side bushings, solved that squeak again, for about two months. Now the driver side is squeaking AGAIN! New Moog bushings each time, what gives????

Running them for 7 years now with no problem. Was able to get 4* of caster. Really like them.
