Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Lower Inner Forward Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 2010-2021 Volkswagen Golf/GTI. You receive 2 shell bushings and 2 tubes. Placement: rear. It is listed for the MQB chassis. Application note: Fits U-channel arm/link at inner position. Whiteline part number: W63551.
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. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. Working on the same car? We also list Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit, Heavy Duty Blade Adjustable 24mm Rear Sway Bar, and Ball Joint Boot Kit for the Golf/GTI.
Features
- Bushing material: Polyurethane is firmer than the factory rubber, so it deflects less under load.
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
- Install guide: An install guide comes in the box.
- Material: Made from polyurethane.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
