omnicron Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 I had been hearing a knocking noise from the front right side of the side and put it on a lift and found that the Whiteline KCA334M Anti-lift/caster kit that had been put on the car by HB Speed was destroyed. It has only been a few months. I took that car back to HB Speed and they verified my determination. I called Whiteline and they told me that they have not been happy with the kits and will have a new model out in 60-90 days. They are going to send me a new one when the new model is completed. So until then be careful with the KCA334M kit. I have attached some pictures so you can see. This is after we had to kinda put it back together. Should I wait for the new kit or get the Perrin PSRS?

naimouasta Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 that sucks. whiteline's anti-lift kit is basically the LCA bushing offered by other manufactures correct? if so, all these bushings failing. i'm still waiting for a reliable solution.

Guest Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 No, whiteline is nothing like Superpro Fulcrum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
integroid Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I have the Perrin kit and don't see how it would fail since it is solid:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FocuS Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I have yet to notice any issues with my AVO offset bushings...they have been on for about 4 months with no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omnicron Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 I just contacted the Whiteline US dist. Global Performance Parts about the replacement part. They still don't have anything yet. At least they have not forgotten about me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClimberDHexMods Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 OP, not surprised to see that from a whiteline product. Reminds me of the roll center adjustment kit they screwed up a little while back. That said, best wishes to them rectifying any issues in their product.

Darkness of Death Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 i installed the 334 antilift kit recently..hopefully it wont get the same results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 The only LCA bushings I've personally seen fail were due to improper installation, and I've done a lot of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhBe1 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Given the amount of deflection these things experience, seems to me they should be spherical bearings. 06LOB2.5i MT, JDMRSB, GYTTs, HPS, LGT Mufflers & Leather Wheel, SubiMomo Knob, Inalfa Moonroof, Clutch Switch Bypass, DeDRLd, DeChimed, & Straight Headrest.

bitz Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I just ordered the KCA334 from Fredbeansparts. Is there a known issue with these bushings? Is the KCA334 different from the KCA334M? This would suck since this is the only lca bushing I could find since everyone is backordered on the AVO & Superpro. Any info would be greatly appreciated as I'm having these installed this weekend.

teK-- Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I have the KCA334 (looks to be a different design to the OP's as mine is a three piece bush), and the passenger side on mine destroyed its top section after around 5,000Kms/4 months. Whiteline have agreed to replace the kit (with the same type I presume) so hopefully I won't have the trouble again. To date I have not heard of anyone else with this same issue.

PeterJMC Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Hopefully Whiteline comes through with a better revised kit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
