Product Details

A control arm bushing is the pivot where the arm joins the chassis or the wheel carrier. Factory rubber is chosen for quiet and comfort, so it squashes under braking, acceleration, and cornering and lets the arm move more than it should. A firmer replacement keeps the arm where it belongs, which steadies the alignment and gives the car a more consistent feel. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.
Installation is rated moderate, with about 3 hours of work listed. An alignment is required after installation. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Volkswagen R32: Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arm Set, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit.
