Product Details
This Whiteline Front Upper and Lower Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 1975 Chevrolet Malibu. Placement: front. In the box: 8 shell bushings, 8 tubes, and grease. The chassis code on the listing is A-Body. Part number W56430.
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. An alignment is required after installation.
Features
- Self-lubricating: Grease reservoirs inside the bushing feed lubrication as it moves.
- Bushing material: Polyurethane is firmer than the factory rubber, so it deflects less under load.
- Easy to fit: Designed so the install needs no specialized skills or tools.
- Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
- Grease: Supplied with molybdenum disulfide grease for extended service life.
- Bushing compound: The bushing material stands up to oil, grease, ozone, and weather.
