Product Details
This Whiteline Front Upper Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 2016-2026 Mazda MX-5 Miata. Chassis code: ND. Part number W56412. You receive 4 shell bushings and 4 tubes. Position: front.
Bushings work out of sight, but they decide how well a suspension holds its geometry. A soft or tired control arm bushing allows play that shows up as vague steering, a wandering feel under braking, or a clunk over bumps. Fitting a firmer one takes that slack out. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.
Whiteline rates the install as difficult and lists about 2 hours. An alignment is required after installation. To go with it on the MX-5 Miata, see Adjustable Sway Bar Vehicle Link Kit, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit.
Features
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.

- Install guide: Step-by-step installation instructions come with it.
- Bushing compound: The bushing material stands up to oil, grease, ozone, and weather.
