Detailed Description

Mevotech MK8260 is a front suspension strut rod bushing kit engineered for 1978-1979 Ford Bronco and 1978-1979 Ford F-150 models. The natural rubber material helps restore the original bushing interface at the strut rod, supporting proper suspension movement and reducing unwanted play at the front end. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. If you are searching for a Ford Bronco front strut rod bushing or a Ford F-150 front suspension bushing replacement, MK8260 provides the listed dimensions and hardware in one service part.

What It Helps Address

  • Front-end looseness caused by worn strut rod bushings
  • Clunking or shifting from deteriorated rubber bushings
  • Suspension movement affected by cracked or compressed bushings
  • Uneven front suspension response from worn mounting points
  • Service replacement needs on 1978-1979 Ford Bronco and Ford F-150

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the inside diameter, outside diameter, and length against the removed part before installation. Inspect the strut rod and surrounding mounting surfaces for wear, corrosion, or deformation, and replace damaged components as needed. Use the included hardware during service and torque fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications after the suspension is loaded at ride height.

Quality Assurance

Mevotech suspension components are built for direct-fit service applications, and MK8260 is specified with the dimensions and hardware needed for the listed Ford front suspension repair.
