What is wheel roll-under and how do these bushings help?

Wheel roll-under happens when the front suspension compresses excessively during hard braking, especially with performance tires. These polyurethane bushings help limit that compression, keeping the suspension geometry more stable and improving braking feel.

Are these bushings difficult to install?

Installation typically involves removing the old rubber bushings and pressing in the new polyurethane ones. While it's a direct replacement, accessing the strut rods may require some disassembly of front-end components. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details.

How do these compare to the stock rubber bushings?

These polyurethane bushings are designed to be firmer and more durable than the original rubber bushings. They offer improved performance by reducing unwanted suspension movement, while stock rubber bushings can degrade and soften over time.

Product Details

If you're working on your 1979-1985 Mazda RX-7 and want to firm up the front end, this strut rod bushing set from Energy Suspension is a solid option. These bushings replace the original rubber ones, which can get soft and worn out over time, especially with performance tires or hard driving. They're made from Energy Suspension's Hyper-Flex polyurethane, a well-built material designed to last longer and perform better than stock rubber.

What these bushings really do is help control how the front suspension moves under braking and acceleration. When you stop hard, the strut rods can allow the suspension to roll under, which isn't ideal. These polyurethane bushings help keep that movement in check, leading to more consistent alignment and a more stable feel. For rear-wheel-drive cars like the RX-7, this means better control when you're stopping abruptly. They also help maintain proper alignment during spirited driving, which is always a good thing.
