HyperFlex Control Arm Bushings

A control arm bushing plays a vital role in a suspension. Replace that faulty O.E. rubber bushing with an Energy Suspension Hyperflex control arm bushing. These polyurethane bushings provide the longevity and performance needed to maximize a suspension's efficiency. Energy Suspension's Hyperflex polyurethane is a firmer bushing than the O.E. Not only does this increase the longevity of the bushing but gives the suspension a boost in handling performance. With a firmer bushing, there will be a slight increase in NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness), but most drivers prefer the boost in performance in spite of that.

Energy Suspension Control Arm Bushing

The Faulty O.E.

As your suspension travels, a rubber control arm bushing is repeatedly stretching and flexing. After a while, the center sleeve begins to sag and your suspension alignment is throw out of whack. The sagging will go on until the rubber fails completely.

Be sure to use Formula 5

A control arm bushing rotates a lot against the metal shell, so make sure you grease it well with Energy Suspension's own Formula 5 Bushing Lubricant. Using plenty of grease is the best way to ensure a long lasting part without any squeaking. If you'd like some extra grease just in case, pick up an extra 3 pack or an 8 ounce tube.

starstarstarstarstar_border" Achieved the desired results. "

I feel entirely less wobble.in the rear IRS subframe. These were installed on a 97 mercury cougar. Poly material is harder than rubber so dont expect super smooth and plush ride. However you will feel your tires staying planted cornering. I gave it a 4 because there is always room for improvement.

Great part at a good price. I have got a lot of poly bushings on my car and I am very happy with their performance. I can feel more of what my car is doing. I will purchase more as I rebuild my suspension.

I am impressed with the ease of installation. It was an easy install. However I cant provide much useful info. The parts at this point only have about 500 miles on them and I am very happy.
