Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm Bushing P/N:MS254104
Smooth out road vibration and keep the front suspension located where it belongs with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm Bushing MS40449. This front forward bushing cushions the pivot where the control arm meets the chassis, helping isolate impact harshness and hold the arm in its intended position. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2000 Ford Contour, 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, and 1998-2000 Mercury Mystique — see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine-level fitment.
Over time a control arm bushing's rubber can crack, harden, or separate, letting the arm shift under load. Signs this suspension control arm bushing may need replacing include clunking on acceleration or over bumps, vague or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. If a worn front forward bushing is the cause, replacing it helps restore proper control-arm location and a more composed ride. Always diagnose the source of a noise or handling issue before replacing parts.
