Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Upper Outer Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 2000 Subaru Legacy Brighton (BE/BH). Order it as part number KCA399. This part is for the rear of the vehicle. In the box: 4 bushings and 2 tubes. Whiteline's note for this fit: On-Car Adjustable Allows +/- 1.25 degrees.
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.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 3 hours. An alignment is required after installation. To go with it on the Legacy, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit.
Features
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
- Self-lubricating: Internal grease reservoirs keep the bushing lubricated as it works.
- Material: Made from polyurethane.
- Finish: The metal parts are powder coated for durability.
- Camber adjustment: Aims to keep camber in an effective range as the body rolls.
- Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
