High Performance Control Arm Bushing Kits
|
|
Restore original road feel and handling characteristics. Replaces worn OE rubber bushings, which are highly susceptible
to cracking and deterioration. A sensible (and permanent!) alternative to purchasing $500+ stock replacement control arms!
Daizen Sport Tuning high performance polyurethane control arm bushings eliminate unsafe driving conditions and poor handling
by allowing minimal deflection of the control arms during dynamic vehicle operation.
Unwanted camber, caster and toe change become a thing of the past, with control arms operating only in their designated arc and suspension travel parameters.
The potential for irregular tire wear is greatly reduced, which is usually a result of the inability to properly
align the suspension to required alignment specifications.
The inherent characteristic of all rubber bushings is that they are highly susceptible to wear and deterioration
over time - hot/cold cycling, road salt and other extreme road conditions will accelerate
this condition. This bushing failure problem can occur in as little as 30,000 miles and
almost always by 70-80,000 miles.
Some symptoms of this deteriorated bushing problem are: Excessive tire wear; the inability to properly align the vehicle;
audible "clunk" noises from floorboard area, especially when turning or backing up; wandering and/or unstable
steering especially at higher speeds; unstable braking; vibration at higher speeds.
An increase in braking stability is also achieved, due to the fact that the control arms will not shift
or oscillate forward and backward under the extreme lateral loads experienced during heavy braking.
If other suspension upgrades such as springs, struts or sway bars are installed, the benefits of each will be maximized when used in conjunction with our high performance control arm bushings.
Just as with our other polyurethane suspension components, there is no worry of deterioration of the bushings over time with extreme use
or with harsh road conditions.
The lower durometer hardness of these bushing sets restores original ride,
as they were specifically designed with Lexus owners in mind. A significant upgrade in handling
is provided as well.
These kits are not like typical aftermarket hard durometer
bushing kits, which while improving handling, also noticeably degrade a vehicle's ride quality and comfort level.
