Application note: Fits U-channel arm/link at inner position. Included: 2 shell bushings and 2 tubes. The listing names the SportWagen trim. Placement: rear. Part number W63551.
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. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 3 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. 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
- Self-lubricating: Built-in grease reservoirs provide continual lubrication and reduce friction.
- Bushing material: Polyurethane is firmer than the factory rubber, so it deflects less under load.
- Material: The part is made of polyurethane.
- Install guide: Instructions for fitting are packed in the box.
- Bushing compound: A synthetic elastomer compound resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering.
