also thinking about getting the FIGS steering back bushing. i have a whiteline rack bushing waiting to be installed but im having second thoughts
I have the regular one installed not the adjustable. I too have different steering rack bushings but am going to make the switch to Super Pro's. (FIGS) IDK I have to have everything match..plus I dont like how the other ones are looking.. they are starting to deform..

Im getting ready to do the same thing on my car but I noticed that the FIGS caster arm kit has 3 different bushings per side...Is it 3 per side?large one pressed in and the other two on the top and bottom?

Yes this is what makes our bushings materially different in function and long term durability. The center bushing has a radius molded in it. The two softer keeper bushings maintain the vertical orientation without requiring the bushing to deform.
