Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Upper Inner Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 2015-2021 Volkswagen Golf/GTI (MQB). Placement: rear. Order it as part number W63578. You receive 2 shell bushings, 2 tubes, 4 washers, an install guide, and grease.
A control arm bushing is the pivot where the arm joins the chassis or the wheel carrier. Factory rubber is chosen for quiet and comfort, so it squashes under braking, acceleration, and cornering and lets the arm move more than it should. A firmer replacement keeps the arm where it belongs, which steadies the alignment and gives the car a more consistent feel. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 3 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. We also list Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arm Set, Adjustable Sway Bar Vehicle Link Kit, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit for the Golf/GTI.
