off set upper control arm bushings worth it???

It's just the ball joint sockets have a strange interference thread that sort of self destructs them if they get changed a lot. And some places are awful rough in replacing them. And you can forcefully install one cross threaded that we be fine for it's life span but when you take it out the threads are toasted for the next install.

Same for bushings too. I've seen gnarly gouges in LCA's from people chiseling the hell out of them trying to get them out.

They should have looked at the homemade tool thread first,lol!! Super good tool there for removing the bushings.

I agree with you on the durability of stock susp components. I remember a story about Dodge taking thier new t bar susp car out to a farmers freshly plowed field and driving it across the furrows at 70+ mph. Not a thing broke in that susp. I think that story might have been printed in an old chrysler power mag. It took place in the 1930's.
