Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Upper Shock Absorber Bushing Kit fits the 1988-1999 Chevrolet C1500 (GMT400). The part number is W33373. Whiteline's note for this fit: Suits OEM Shocks Only. Position: rear. Included: 4 bushings, 2 tubes, an install guide, and grease.
The connection between the shock and the control arm or body is only as good as the bushing in it. Worn bushings add play, so a firmer replacement helps the shock do its work. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Whiteline rates the install as moderate and lists about 1 hour. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the C1500, see Body Mount Bushing Kit, Ball Joint Boot Kit, and Transmission Mount Bushing Kit.
Features
- Install guide: Step-by-step installation instructions come with it.
- Bushing compound: The bushing material stands up to oil, grease, ozone, and weather.
- Bushing material: Polyurethane is firmer than the factory rubber, so it deflects less under load.
- Grease: Molybdenum disulfide grease is included to help the parts last.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
