i have cusco's and ive had them on for a while and i got to thinking when a car is lowered as much a one on coilovers do you have to free up all the the bushings like on all the suspension links since they are flexing more than they would at stock height?

i don't think it would hurt to reload the bushings on a lowered height.... on that note i need to do it to my car.
I think it would be like doing it on a stock car everyone says to lower the car when you torque the hardware down it makes a difference... my 2 pennies right there.
