After 350evo installed

I got my 350evo a arms installed and just had a general question about them.

The car feels a little rougher now, meaning, that is almost feels like the front end is loose or something. I had a top notch shop specializing in suspension setups install them. They were very impressed by the quality of the 350evo arms.

One thing is that the 350evo arms don't have a poly or rubber cone bushing. Could this be a result that is natural from a non-poly or rubber cone bushing. Am I just getting even more "feedback" from the road?

Nothing else changed other than replacing stock a-arms with the 350evos. Springs were already on. Or could something possibly be loose or would it be blatantly obvious if something was loose?

Thanks!!!

Unless they made a mistake and did not tighten the camber adjustment plates, what you are feeling is more road feel. I have them and you feel much more than the OE, but I'm curious when the bushings wear out where to get replacements as 350Evo help is non-existant.

Thanks.

There are no bushings to speak of with the 350evo set up. I thought it strange too but apparently it's a better setup. Its mono-ball and spherical bearings.

SPL are the same setup. I have the same experience with my SPLs, so I'm really curious to hear peoples' responses....

Sorry, I used "bushings" instead of heim joint rod-eye or whatever the pivot points are called. And my understanding is that the SPL still uses rubber bushings.
