Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Upper Inner Control Arm Bushing fits the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta SEL Premium (5C). Part number W63549. Included: 2 bushings and 2 tubes. Chassis code: 5C. It goes on the rear of the vehicle.
Every time the wheel moves, the control arm swings on its bushings. When they are soft or worn, the arm shifts under load, the alignment changes as the car moves, and steering and braking feel less precise. A stiffer bushing cuts that unwanted movement while still letting the arm pivot freely. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Installation is rated moderate, with about 3 hours of work listed. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Jetta: Front and Rear Essential Vehicle Kit and 20mm Rear Sway Bar Mount Bushing Kit.
Features
- Corrosion protection: The hardware is plated to stand up to road conditions.
- Bushing compound: The elastomer formulation is chosen to shrug off oil, grease, ozone, and the elements.
- Material: The part is made of polyurethane.
- Finish: The metal parts are powder coated for durability.
- Self-lubricating: Grease reservoirs inside the bushing feed lubrication as it moves.
- Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease is included to help the parts last.
