Mevotech Supreme Suspension Control Arm Bushing P/N:MS30403
Help keep the front suspension of your 1989-1997 Ford Thunderbird or 1989-1997 Mercury Cougar properly located with the Mevotech Supreme MK8706 control arm bushing. This front upper bushing is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. It cushions the joint between the control arm and its mount so the arm can pivot as the suspension moves. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
As a control arm bushing ages, its rubber can crack, tear or separate. That lets the arm shift more than it should. Signs this part may need replacing include clunking or knocking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear. Other suspension parts can cause the same symptoms, so inspect the system and confirm the cause before replacing. Have the wheel alignment checked after installation.
