Anyone else running a setup like this?
Anyone else running a setup like this? I know this is not normal and common. I have googled and no luck. I have found similar setups for other cars but not a Subaru Sti /wrx/forester. I figure my car can't be the only one with this mod done. I bought the car and it had this mod already done. I have the white line alk and rack bushings but the alk comes with standard tie rod ends not these. Hope to get Info, thanks.

Yeah i saw that kit of theirs. i was hoping LIC or another of the tuners would chime in with some knowledge.

I have no problems or issues with the way my car turns and noting is broken. but I would like to know what I have in case I ever need to replace. What would have been nice is if i was able to talk to the owner or shop who did the mods.

Any Tuners or Racers online today that might have some info on this setup or anyone who might also be running this.
