Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm Bushing Kit P/N:MS40497
Cushion your front suspension and keep the upper control arm located precisely with the Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm Bushing Kit MS40435. This front upper bushing kit drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, and 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer, helping restore the compliant location and dampening the factory bushings once provided.
Control arm bushings isolate the arm from the frame, absorbing road vibration while allowing the arm to pivot through suspension travel. When they crack, split, or deteriorate, you may notice clunking on acceleration or over uneven pavement, imprecise steering, or uneven tire wear — common signs these bushings may need replacing.
Diagnose the cause of any clunk or steering complaint before ordering, as these symptoms can have other sources.
