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.
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.

Energy Suspension 3.3177
starstarstarstar_borderstar_border" OK product. Only if you do not need any of the supporting metal bits. "
Over all, nominal. Installation was as expected. Would be nice if Energy would offer to include the metal pieces for the C5. These cars are getting quite old now and are starting to wear these items. When replacing the bushings, just would be nice to have the option of ordering them from one source.

After many miles of tracking my C5 Z06 Corvette, this bushing kit really made a difference! The car feels very solid and responsive. I would recommend doing this to any C5/C6 with any amount of miles; it really makes a great difference without sacrificing ride quality.
