Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Upper Outer Control Arm Bushing (Standard Repl.) fits the 2005-2009 Subaru Outback XT Limited (BP/BR). The part number is W63397. This part is for the rear of the vehicle. Whiteline's note for this fit: Standard Replacement. The kit contains 4 bushings and 2 tubes.
Control arm bushings wear out quietly. Over time the rubber hardens, cracks, or tears, and the arm starts to move in ways its designers did not intend, which shows up as clunks, vague steering, or uneven tire wear. A standard replacement bushing puts the pivot back to the way the car was built.
Expect a moderate job of about 3 hours. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. To go with it on the Outback, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing, and 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts.
Features
- Bushing compound: Oil, grease, ozone, and weather do not break down the synthetic elastomer used in the bushings.
- Material: The part is made of polyurethane.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
- Finish: Powder coat finish guards the metal against chips and corrosion.
- Corrosion protection: Rust protection comes from plating on the metal parts.
