Whiteline ALK- $100 - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

Kevin M · 2009-04-09, 01:17 PM

Went to pull the crossmember on the coupe and notices that is has a Whiteline ALK on it. These work great, but not great enough to justify moving to Prepared! I'm not sure if it's race or comfort, but I would assume it's Race. Works for GD chassis, but I don't have any of the spacers that allow the subframe brace back on.

What color are the bushings, and is the durometer stamped on them?

Dean · 2009-04-09, 03:30 PM

They are legal in SU as well. Mike could use them.

Mike isn't running this year...

IIRC, there's no easy way to tell the difference between the comfort and regular bushings since they're both yellow (perhaps the comfort ALK bushings are slotted?), but the race ones are black I believe.

Yeah, supposedly the 70, 80, or 90 duro ratings are on the bushings. That would let you know immediately.

I'll take a look tomorrow.

Mike never runs, he's way too lazy. And this season, he won't be autocrossing either.
