Longevity of K-MAC eccentric bushings?

Thank you gsxr. That is exactly the kind of information that I wanted to know. You made very good points about possible vibration and the required careful inspection of parts intended for the track.

Now that you mention it, from pictures I’ve seen, it looks like the OEM links have some kind of rubber bushings that cushion the connection points. In comparison, it looks like the MRP Motorsports’ aluminum camber arms have rigid ends. The description of the steel arms, however, mentions that there is a polymer bushing. From the picture it looks like there is a bushing on one end, but not on the other.

How long to you think the K-MAC polyurethane bushings and eccentric hardware will last?

You feel you love them too much, or you are just too stupid to know any better.
