Product Details
This Whiteline Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing fits the 2003-2005 Subaru Legacy L SE. Chassis code: BL/BP. Placement: front. The kit contains 4 bushings and 2 tubes. The listing names the L SE trim. Order it as part number W0506.
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.
Installation is rated difficult, with about 2.5 hours of work listed. 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
- Self-lubricating: Grease reservoirs inside the bushing feed lubrication as it moves.
- Finish: The metal is powder coated, which resists corrosion and wear.
- Material: The part is made of polyurethane.
- Corrosion protection: Rust protection comes from plating on the metal parts.
- Bushing compound: The bushing material stands up to oil, grease, ozone, and weather.
- Grease: Moly grease is supplied to prolong the life of the parts.
