Thank you for this video. I have a 2005 outback and just noticed that same issue. This video was a tremendous help.

[@tomoneill1098]

Thank you. I've got a 2002 with 130000 miles. Rusted rockers. A project.

[@terrydwyer8318]

Told I needed to replace link for alignment, thought about just doing bushings, best info found on Utube, thanks a bunch!

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

I'm glad you found this useful. The biggest challenge you'll face is just loosening the bolts. Use a good penetrating oil and be patient. You got this!! 👍

I had a subaru leone 1982 as my first car. The exhaust ended up rusting through and the original part was too expensive. A muffler repair shop replaced it with straight through pipes and after that it purred like a kitten. Subaru's of that vintage always sounded tinny because of that rattly muffler design and when I traded it in, I am sure the car salesman gave me more cause it sounded better than any other subaru he had ever heard.

Just picked up an 02 LL bean with 180k on it. Was wondering why I couldn't find this part until you said they were also called links, appreciate it! Coming from working on Hondas and Jeeps so I did not expect that.

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

Glad you found it helpful. :)

I have a 2001 and mine is doin the same thing thanks for the help

[@pellcio]

Thanks for this! I've been totally vexed as to why I have so much negative camber in the rear of my 2004 Legacy wagon. I've checked everything, subframe bushings, lower links, shock & springs. I even put in spacers to try to fix it. Thanks.

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

I'm glad I was able to help!

[@pellcio]

@@TangoCharlieAlpha I was unable to remove either side's inner nuts. Left side nut is now rounded off. They seem overly torqued and I can't get the proper angle to swing a breaker bar.. Very frustrated now. I may have to drop the subframe to get them off.

[@WilliamGreenlee]

I found that the squeaking from mine was coming from the rear trailing arm forward bushing. You can test it by spraying it will silicone spray or water and seeing if the squeak goes away.

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

Very true! I find that once they have reached that point, they are not long for this world! 😆

White lion makes rear control arm bushings with camber adjustment hardware

[@deanraddick9041]

Hey how’s it going, thanks for your video, on your driver side you showed the classic rear tire that tips/leans inward. On your passenger rear, you were able to resolve the tilt inward, was that problem fixed because the rubber bushing on the upper and lower control arms were newly installed. Thanks again! Take care

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

That camber issue (at least the one I had) was entirely the result of the lower bushing being destroyed. I was quite surprised at how much that bushing could affect the suspension. Glad was able to help! Cheers!

[@KENDAandhisORB]

Good share. Thanks!

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

Glad you enjoyed it. ;)

[@rwachtell]

The in board bushing on that lateral link arm is NOT easy to get to for removal.

[@bobnicol5209]

Please for the love of God I'm trying to replace a rear lower foward lateral arm and can't find anything

[@frenchgator5175]

I recently replaced my suspension in 2001 outback, front and back pulled out old struts and put in new aftermarket suspension , while doing so i didnt think about rear camber for allignment. By replacing the lateral link you were able to adjust the camber or did you need an additional bolt??

[@brianphipps6386]

did you do a follow up on finished project, how did it turn out?

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

Hi Brian! Thanks for adding me to your subscription list. I have not done a follow-up video, but I certainly can. Everything turned out great with changing the rear links. No more camber issues.

[@wrainbouy]

Yes,, they do have camber adjustments on both front and rear

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

There is toe adjustment, but no camber. Factory specs are given, but this is standard on all vehicles. It's a bolt and bushing kit that allows vehicles to return to spec.

[@TechnologyBudda]

Dirt cheap? Why do I see the arms for over $200?

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

Then you are looking in the wrong place. I literally spent 10 seconds just a moment ago, and found them for $40/each. Not sure what to tell ya man. Lol

[@KingSnake377]

@@TangoCharlieAlpha Rockauto doesn't have them listed, there's some on Amazon from Dorman for $70 a side but they're for the Legacy specifically. There are lower lateral links that sell for less but I wasn't able to find a new 00-04 Outback upper lateral link for sale anywhere made by anybody but Subaru. Where are you finding them for $40 a side?

[@KingSnake377]

@@TangoCharlieAlpha So have you come up with any link to buy new Subaru Outback upper lateral links for $40 each? You can't just claim someone's looking in the wrong place and not give them a place to look. You literally made a whole video nicely documenting the issue and won't even copy/paste a link that you only "spent 10 seconds" finding.

[@KingSnake377]

@@TangoCharlieAlpha So, no link then? lol

[@TangoCharlieAlpha]

@@KingSnake377 The price of everything has gone way up since I posted this video. They WERE $40, but they've gone up to (the lowest I found at O'Reilly Auto Parts) $65. $15 difference there. If THAT is a deal breaker for you, then I don't know what to tell ya, guy. Everything is relative I guess. As for "no link to the part", dude, I told you that I pulled mine off of a donor car. Not sure which generation you're from, but people can't hold your hand and do everything for you. Use your head. That's that lump about 3 feet up from your back pocket! Cheers!
