I'm looking to buy a anti lift kit of some sort soon but am a little sceptical of the Superpro offset bush and concerned over the longevity of the new compound polybush in the Whiteline kit!! :confused:

Does this help with your decision:
Removed from a Golf GTi this week. Low miles going from the condition of the metal consoles. Grease hadn't even fully dried out either. Replaced with the SuperPro ALK.

Erm, yeah! Thats pretty poor really!
Wonder why the Superpro kit uses offset bushes - or does the Whiteline use and offset metal console and a centred bush?

Basically yes. The Whiteline console is formed in a way that means it gets the extra caster by pushing the subframe forward. As in the only way to fit their consoles it to loosen all the subframe bolts and shift it forward.
The Superpro uses the slightly offset bush to gain the anti lift and increase in caster. Where the Whiteline uses a pressed in bush and poly to poly contact, the Superpro is bonded directly to the console and uses a metal sleeve to contact to the poly. No friction issues there. I cant find a pic of their setup, but will post one up here when I can.

The whiteline method played part in my clearance / contact problem by putting the wheel too far forward in the arch :fighting:
