Suspension Bushing
A rubber or polyurethane component isolating vibration between suspension parts.
Suspension bushings reduce noise and absorb road shocks between metal components. They're found in control arms, stabilizer bars, and subframes. Over time, bushings crack or soften, causing clunking noises and poor handling. Replacing worn bushings restores ride comfort and alignment stability. Polyurethane bushings offer improved performance and durability over rubber types. Regular inspection keeps the suspension system tight and responsive.
