Help bring back a smooth, stable ride with the Dorman suspension knuckle bushing, part number 905-531. It is a rear upper bushing that lets you replace the worn knuckle bushing instead of the entire steering knuckle. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2011-2019 Ford Explorer, 2010-2019 Ford Taurus and 2009-2019 Ford Flex. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details.
Dorman's suspension components are designed to help restore a smooth ride, directional stability and agile handling. A knuckle bushing cushions the joint where the knuckle connects to the suspension. It helps isolate road vibration and limit unwanted movement.
- Replace just the bushing: swap out the worn knuckle bushing rather than the entire steering knuckle.
- Direct replacement: made as a direct replacement for the listed applications, designed for a trouble-free installation.
