What is the main benefit of using polyurethane bushings over rubber?

Polyurethane bushings, like those made from Energy's Hyper-Flex material, are generally more durable and resistant to degradation than rubber. They also offer a firmer connection between suspension components, which can improve handling and alignment stability.

Do I need to reuse my old control arm metal shells with this kit?

Yes, this kit requires you to reuse the existing outer metal shells from your stock control arms. The polyurethane bushings are designed to be pressed into these shells.

Product Details

If you're looking to firm up the suspension on your classic GM car, this Energy Suspension control arm bushing kit is a solid option. It's made from Energy's Hyper-Flex performance polyurethane, which is known for holding up well over time and under stress. These bushings replace the stock rubber ones in your control arms, helping to maintain proper alignment, especially when you're cornering or driving on uneven surfaces. This can lead to a more connected feel to the road and improved overall vehicle control.

This kit is designed to fit into the existing outer metal shells of your stock control arms, making installation more straightforward. The full-floating design allows for smoother operation without binding, and the polyurethane material itself is built to outlast and outperform traditional rubber bushings. You'll find these are a popular choice for owners looking to enhance the handling characteristics of their vehicles, whether for daily driving or more spirited use.

This particular kit is for the rear of the suspension and comes in black. It's a good idea to check the specific fitment for your vehicle, as this kit covers a range of GM models from the early 70s through the late 70s, including cars like the Buick Electra, Chevrolet Impala, and Chevrolet Caprice.
