Installation
The old bushes must be pressed out and the new ones pressed in, so a hydraulic press is needed. Tighten all fixings to the vehicle manufacturer's torque figures with the suspension loaded at normal ride height. Have a full four-wheel alignment done after fitting. We recommend professional fitting.
Do I need a press?
Yes, bushes are pressed into the arm or housing.
Will it make the ride harsher?
Hardened rubber is firmer than standard, but keeps ride comfort close to factory.
Do I need an alignment?
Yes, have an alignment after replacing suspension bushes.
How long do hardened rubber bushes last?
With normal use they last as long as or longer than factory bushes, and resist splitting better.
Will it fit my car?
It is listed for the models in the Fitment section. If your car has a different engine, drive layout or market spec, check with us before ordering.
Is it road legal?
