Whiteline Bump Steer Correction Kit Install (Subaru)

in this video I finally get around to installing a whiteline bump steer correction after a year of having my car lowered on bc coilovers. I've been needing to do this for a while since my car is lowered by 3 inches it really messed up the steering geometry, causing it to not handle as good as it should.
hope you enjoy the video and don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe.
thanks

.got the same ball joint seperater. Works great without tearing up the rubber seals. 2006 subie sti retired 68 having fun with my 2006 sti

I installed the same ball joints on my '04 Outback LL Bean. I had to grind off about a mm around the top half because they didn't fit. But I made them fit, thank goodness.

Damn all new stuff. 👌🏼

[@daltonscofield22]

Watching this it looks like an electric impact would be a good investment for you haha

[@SWSpeedCo]

I was using a 1/4 inch drive impact driver, but it wasn't strong enough to take off most of the stuff lol. Since then I got a 1/2 inch milwaukee impact which takes anything off

New SUB, awesome VIDEO super helpful instructions TK U.✅

What’s the part number for the moog inner tie rod? Thanks

[@SWSpeedCo]

moog-ev801557 Thanks for watching!

I am new to this kit. I was only able to install the outer tie rods. The ball joint seems to not fit in the spindle like the OEM. It is loose. Any advice?

[@SWSpeedCo]

I dont remember mine being loose so I'm not sure. Are you sure you got the correct kit for your vehicle?

[@Jose.D.P.]

@@SWSpeedCo I actually watched another video and realized that I have to relocate the cones from the OEM ball joint to the whiteline ball joint

[@DopeeJamm]

​@@Jose.D.P.You have to swap out a collar on models with aluminium arms

[@SubOptimal_]

why did you have to get a new tire rod? can you not reuse the old one?

[@SWSpeedCo]

Yeah you can reuse the old inner tierod, I just wanted to replace it while I was in there

[@vannevels6758]

So did you get the ball joint out?

[@SWSpeedCo]

Yes, I got it out. They are never easy on subarus

[@vannevels6758]

@@SWSpeedCo yes, but how? It looks like you used an opening ball joint separator.

[@SWSpeedCo]

I used the ball joint separator to disconnect it from the control arm. Then I loosely connected it to the control arm and removed the pinch bolt that holds in the ball joint and I pryed down on the control arm with a pry bar which removes it from the spindle

[@vannevels6758]

@@SWSpeedCo ok cool. Thanks

[@baelm]

i was hoping i would get some good tips from this but it's the same ol' anti-seize last time and ball joint separator tool lol :C

[@troyspurvey5158]

How did the car handle after ?

[@SWSpeedCo]

Pretty good, you can throw it into corners Pretty hard without the front suspension bottoming out. Made the front end feel a bit stiffer

[@troyspurvey5158]

@@SWSpeedCo any mods you reccomend for better straight line driving? Since I’ve owned my car I’ve had issues kind of swerving left and right at highway speeds

[@SWSpeedCo]

I would say that is probably more than likely an alignment issue

[@troyspurvey5158]

@@SWSpeedCo sadly I’ve gotten 4 alignments and went to multiple shops, I do own a 2018 wrx so maybe it’s the electric steering

[@SWSpeedCo]

My car kind of tramlines a little bit on the freeway, and I think it's because I have 0 toe. If you have a little toe in I think that would help. The only other thing I could think of that would cause that is maybe ball joints or bushings. But you could also be used to the new car.

[@vannevels6758]

How the fuck did you get the tie rod adjustment nut and tie end off?! I've tried TOO many ways (PB Blaster, fire, freeze off, etc) to get them off but I CAN'T! Torque specs?

[@SWSpeedCo]

For one side I couldn't get them off either. What I had to do was cut the inner tie rod shaft off at the threads so I could get an inner tie rod tool on it to remove the inner tie rod. That's why I replaced inner and outer tie rods at the same time because I had to cut one off. There is only a torque spec for the inner tie rod to steering rack and you can find it online or in the factory service manual

[@tonyv2655]

WhAt are the parts numbers for those boots, I can find them on google

[@SWSpeedCo]

34137AG00A, and 34137AG01A are the part numbers for the boots

[@tonyv2655]

Thank you bro 🙌

[@Horhay5050]

SMH...what not to do: using a extended socket without supporting the pivot point, and go beyond proven torque specs. You probably overtightened the bolt that you snapped.

[@SWSpeedCo]

The bolt snapped when I was trying to remove it because it was rusty. Definitely didn't over tighten it

[@jimmydeane2241]

No

[@SWSpeedCo]

Yes
