• Designed to reduce unwanted suspension movement, resulting in more predictable handling and improved steering response.
• Resistant to oil, dirt, and other contaminants, maintaining performance over the lifespan of the bushings.
• Easy to install with a direct bolt-on design, requiring no modifications or special tools in most cases.
• Helps support consistent wheel alignment and tire longevity by maintaining proper suspension geometry.
• Ideal for both street-driven vehicles and spirited driving scenarios where handling precision is paramount.
• Manufactured by SuperPro, a trusted name in suspension components known for quality and longevity.

Construction & Design

The SuperPro control arm bushes are crafted from high-grade polyurethane, a material chosen for its superior durability and performance characteristics. Unlike traditional rubber, polyurethane maintains its shape and firmness over time, providing a more stable suspension platform. The bushes are precisely molded to fit the OEM control arm geometry, ensuring a perfect fit and seamless integration into your vehicle's suspension system.

The design incorporates a one-piece construction with high-strength steel sleeves, which enhances structural integrity and prevents deformation under load. The use of CAD-developed profiles ensures optimal load distribution and minimal deflection, translating into improved handling and ride quality. The kit's components are engineered to withstand harsh driving conditions, including exposure to oil, road grime, and temperature fluctuations, making them suitable for daily use and performance applications alike.

Installation & Fitment

The SuperPro Front Control Arm Lower Rear Bushing Kit is designed for straightforward installation, typically involving removal of the control arm from the vehicle and pressing out the old rubber bushes. The new polyurethane bushes are then pressed into place, and the control arm is reinstalled. No cutting, drilling, or complex modifications are required in most cases, making this a convenient upgrade for DIY enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike.

It is recommended to inspect all suspension components during installation and replace any additional worn parts to ensure optimal handling and safety. Proper torque specifications should be followed to secure the bushes and control arms correctly.
