The rubber isolator and steel shell construction are selected to restore the connection point between the control arm and suspension structure, helping maintain proper joint movement under load. If you are servicing a 1997-2003 Ford F-150 front upper suspension, a 1997-2002 Ford Expedition front upper suspension, a 1998-2002 Lincoln Navigator front upper suspension, or a 1997-1999 Ford F-250 front upper suspension, Dorman 537-080 is built for that application. This part cross-references MOOG Chassis Products K8721 for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Issues This Part Addresses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClunking or knocking from worn front upper control arm bushings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcessive suspension play at the control arm mounting point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven tire wear related to bushing wear and alignment instability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteering looseness caused by deteriorated rubber isolation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuspension noise from cracked, hardened, or separated bushings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVerify the vehicle year, make, model, and front upper position before installation. Inspect the control arm and surrounding mounting surfaces for wear, corrosion, or damage before pressing in the new bushings. Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse or replace related fasteners as needed during service. Confirm alignment after suspension work is completed, especially on Ford F-150, Ford Expedition, and Lincoln Navigator front upper applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDorman tests this replacement bushing kit for fit and function against the original equipment application on specific vehicles.
