Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Lower Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 1998-2002 Subaru Forester. Placement: rear. In the box: 8 bushings and 8 tubes. Order it as part number W0595. Whiteline's note for this fit: Bushing Service Kit Only to KTA108, KTA109 or KTA123. The chassis code on the listing is SF/SG.
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.
Expect a moderate job of about 2 hours. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. Working on the same car? We also list Rear Sway Bar Link, 14mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit for the Forester.
Features
- Material: The part is made of polyurethane.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
- Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
- Bushing compound: The bushing material stands up to oil, grease, ozone, and weather.
