Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm Bushing P/N:540-850
Cut down the clunks and sloppy handling caused by a worn suspension bushing with the Dorman - OE Solutions Suspension Control Arm Bushing 540-863. This is the front left lower rearward bushing, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer and 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment). It cushions the pivot point where the control arm meets the frame, isolating road vibration and keeping suspension geometry located as designed.
Signs this bushing may need replacing include clunking on acceleration, deceleration, or over bumps, imprecise steering, and cracked or deteriorated rubber. Diagnose the cause before replacing, and inspect related suspension components at the same time. If the failed bushing is the source of your symptoms, this part restores the intended pivot.
