What This Part Helps Address

• Worn or cracked control arm bushing material

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the front lower position and stabilizer-to-control-arm mounting point before installation. Compare the inside diameter, outside diameter, length, and wall thickness to the removed bushing to confirm proper match. Inspect the control arm and surrounding hardware for wear or damage before pressing in the new bushing. Professional installation is recommended for suspension bushing service.
