Product Details
This Whiteline Front Lower Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 2007-2012 Lincoln MKZ (CD3). The kit contains 4 bushings and 2 tubes. Part number W53396. Placement: front.
Bushings work out of sight, but they decide how well a suspension holds its geometry. A soft or tired control arm bushing allows play that shows up as vague steering, a wandering feel under braking, or a clunk over bumps. Fitting a firmer one takes that slack out. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Expect a difficult job of about 2.5 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the Lincoln MKZ, see Front Sway Bar Link and Rear Sway Bar Link (80-320mm Length).
