Product Details
This Whiteline Front Lower Radius Arm Bushing Kit fits the 2001-2005 Lexus IS300 (XE10). Whiteline's note for this fit: Fits Inner Position of Front Radius Arm (Lexus #2 Control Arm). Placement: front. Part number W83478. Chassis code: XE10.
Every time the wheel moves, the radius 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. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.
Whiteline rates the install as difficult and lists about 2 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the IS300, see Rear Adjustable Toe Control Arms, Steering Rack and Pinion Mount Bushing Kit, and Rear Lower Inner Front Control Arm Bushing Kit.
Features
- Install guide: Step-by-step installation instructions come with it.
- Self-lubricating: Grease reservoirs inside the bushing feed lubrication as it moves.
- Material: The part is made of polyurethane.
- Bushing compound: Oil, grease, ozone, and weather do not break down the synthetic elastomer used in the bushings.
