Product Details
Made to fit the 2005-2009 Subaru Outback XT Limited (BP/BR), the Rear Control Arm Service Kit from Whiteline. You receive 12 bushings, 6 tubes, and 8 washers. The part number is KSK124. Whiteline's note for this fit: Service kit to suit Whiteline control arms KTA124. The listing names the XT Limited trim. Placement: rear.
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. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Installation is rated moderate, with about 2 hours of work listed. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Outback: Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing, and 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts.
Features
- Corrosion protection: A protective plating covers the metal components to guard against corrosion.
- Material: Made from polyurethane.
- Bushing compound: Oil, grease, ozone, and weather do not break down the synthetic elastomer used in the bushings.
- Self-lubricating: Grease reservoirs inside the bushing feed lubrication as it moves.
