Product Details
Looking for a rear control arm bushing for your 2017 Volkswagen Golf/GTI Wolfsburg Edition? The Whiteline Rear Upper Outer Control Arm Bushing is made for it. Trim named on the listing: Wolfsburg Edition. This part is for the rear of the vehicle. Chassis code: AU. Included: 2 shell bushings and 2 tubes. Whiteline part number: W63579.
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.
Expect a moderate job of about 3 hours. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing for the Golf/GTI.
Features
- Bonded design: Bonding adds durability in high-load use.
- Corrosion protection: A protective plating covers the metal components to guard against corrosion.
- Material: Polyurethane construction.
- Bushing compound: The elastomer formulation is chosen to shrug off oil, grease, ozone, and the elements.
- Self-lubricating: Grease reservoirs inside the bushing feed lubrication as it moves.
- Install guide: Written install instructions are included with the part.
