A control arm bushing is the cushioned pivot point between the control arm and its mount. It lets the arm move through its travel with the suspension while helping to absorb road vibration and keep the arm located.
Signs this bushing may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, a loose or wandering steering feel, uneven tire wear, and rubber that is visibly cracked, torn, or separated. These symptoms can have other causes, so inspect the suspension before replacing parts. If a worn bushing is the cause, MS70417 replaces it.
