Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm Bushing Kit P/N:MS10444
Quiet down front-end clunks and restore precise wheel location with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm Bushing Kit MS40497, a direct-fit replacement for the front lower control arm bushings on the 1979 Ford LTD and 1979 Mercury Marquis. These bushings cushion the joint between the control arm and the chassis, isolating road vibration while helping keep the arm properly located — worn, cracked, or oil-soaked rubber shows up as clunking on acceleration or over bumps, imprecise steering, and uneven tire wear.
This suspension control arm bushing kit installs into the factory control arm. If worn front lower bushings are the cause of your handling or noise complaint, replacing them helps return the suspension to proper operation; diagnose the cause first, since these symptoms can have other sources. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct pressing procedure and any related fasteners.
