    Apparently certain SPC Light Racing UCAs require an update kit. Found this
    Called today and SPC is sending me the kit, p/n 25478. A few of my bushings look pretty shitty. Not sure if the pitting is normal. Picture to follow.

    What you think would cause the pitting on the bushing like that? They've only been on 11 months.

    My only thought is that the batch of rubber was bad. The new bushings are a different design in shape and material.
