they are basically replacement lateral and trailing link arms with 40% firmer than stock rubber bushings pressed into them.

I might end up ordering some lateral links for my car. I found a site that sells the mazdaspeed ones for $27 each which is cheaper than a mazda dealer would sell the OEM replacements for!

is the actual construction of the arms different or just the bushings?

both trailing and lateral links have rubber bushings 40% stiffer than stock.

Also...the lateral links allow more toe adjustment, other than that, the trailing links are identical, and the lateral links are basically the same except for the adjusters.
