Product Details
Made to fit the 2006-2013 Lexus IS350 (XE20), the Front Control Arm Upper Inner Rear Bushing Kit from Whiteline. Order it as part number W53622. In the box: 4 shell bushings and 4 tubes. It goes on the front of the vehicle.
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 3 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the IS350, see Rear Trailing Arm Lower Front Bushing, Heavy Duty Blade Adjustable 18mm Rear Sway Bar, and Rear Differential Bushing - Front Mount Kit.
Features
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
- Bonded design: Bonding adds durability in high-load use.
- Install guide: Written install instructions are included with the part.
- Material: The part is made of polyurethane.
- Corrosion protection: Plated finish keeps rust off the hardware.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
