5 link suspension
 
I've replaced the rear control arms on both my 190d and my 95 E300D (W124) and the Meyle push link control arms which are the longest of the 4 control arms are longer then the orgional control arms. The other 3 on each side on both cars were the same length. The rear tires on both cars are now camber'd in (negative camber). Is there a reason the new push link control arms are longer? I'm worried about tire wear.

Maybe the new bushings that came with the new links emphasize the wear on the carrier bushings - http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/diesel-discussion/338574-notes-r-r-outer-lca-bushings-w124-others.html
