Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Spring Bushing Kit fits the 1967-1974 Chevrolet K10 Pickup. Part number W73477. In the box: 12 bushings, 6 tubes, and grease. It goes on the rear of the vehicle. The listing names the Pickup trim.
On a leaf-sprung vehicle the spring eyes and shackles pivot on bushings, and they take the movement every time the axle moves. Worn rubber lets the axle shift and clunk, and heavy loads speed that up. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Expect a moderate job of about 2 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the Chevrolet K10, see Transmission Mount Bushing Kit, Tie Rod Boot Kit, and Body Mount and Radiator Support Bushing Kit.
Features
- Bushing material: The bushing material is polyurethane, a firmer choice than rubber.
- Self-lubricating: Built-in grease reservoirs provide continual lubrication and reduce friction.
- Install guide: Step-by-step installation instructions come with it.
- Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease is included to help the parts last.
- Bushing compound: Oil, grease, ozone, and weather do not break down the synthetic elastomer used in the bushings.
