Product Details
This Whiteline Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing fits the 2003-2005 Subaru Outback VDC. Whiteline part number: W0506. The listing names the VDC trim. Placement: front. The kit contains 4 bushings and 2 tubes. The chassis code on the listing is BP.
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 difficult and lists about 2.5 hours. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit for the Outback.
