What This Part Helps Address

• Rubber bushing wear that affects alignment consistency

Installation Notes

Verify vehicle trim and suspension configuration before ordering, especially on 2015-2016 models noted for stamped steel arms. This assembly is not adjustable and is pre-greased, so no grease fitting is provided. Professional alignment is recommended after installation to restore proper suspension geometry.
