Position of Front Control Arm Offset Bushing


#1

I am replacing old bushings on the front control arms and am going with poly offset bushings as is recommended with the spec struts and coils. I will tap in a set screw as well. Before I do so I want to make sure the bushings will be positioned accurately within the mounting brackets. Is it safe to say that the set screw should go into the bushings thickest part away from the control arm insert? Can someone please help? Pic attached for reference.

You want the wheel to move forward, therefore, the LCA bushing hole should be to the outside of the car.

Put the set screw at the opposite end of the mounting post. So, yes, in the area with the thickest bushing material.
