Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Upper Outer Control Arm Bushing Kit fits the 2006-2014 Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The part number is W63550. Included: 2 bushings and 2 tubes. It is listed for the PQ35 chassis. It goes on the rear of the vehicle.
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.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 3 hours. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Golf/GTI: Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arm Set, Adjustable Sway Bar Vehicle Link Kit, and Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link Kit.
