Pls forgive my ignorance, but is it not possible to just replace the (OEM) bushes without replacing the whole arms?

Also, is it possible to replace either or both of the above without depressurising the DRC?

Don't think that's possible, but you can polybush,trouble is it affects ride feel, I'm looking at these stern arms as you get a better adjustment on a lowered car

Sorry for bring up this old thread.

I will need to replace all my front suspension arms and I wanted to know if anyone have used these Stern upper arms? Do they make much of a difference to the refinement/harshness of the ride?
