    It looks kind of similar to the flex I had when I checked mine a while back ... Even with the TT bushings rather than the standard bushings the flex is quite pronounced. If I get a chance I'll grab a pic for comparison tomorrow.

          Here's mine as a basis for comparison ... I'm on level ground and the camera is being held close to perpendicular to the control arm. Have you replaced the bushings recently?

            are you guys low? mine look fine but they angle up (lowered about 50mm) and i do understand that this counteracts handling propertie??

              I'm lowered more than standard, but not massively low ... Not really much of an angle when I look at the control arm. I can see how it would angle upwards if you were lowered by a lot.

              Are you lowered by much Didz? Also, when was the last time your wheels were aligned? Have you hit anything recently? Tyre pressures ... etc.
