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

Wheel roll-under is the tendency for the front of the vehicle to dip down excessively during hard braking. These polyurethane bushings help resist that movement by providing a firmer support than stock rubber, leading to more stable braking.

Are these bushings suitable for all drive types?

Yes, these strut rod bushings are designed for both front and rear-drive vehicles that are equipped with strut rods. They offer benefits like reduced wheel hop on front-wheel-drive cars during acceleration.

What is the main advantage of polyurethane over rubber bushings?

Polyurethane is a much denser and more durable material than stock rubber. It resists degradation from heat, road grime, and flexing, meaning it holds its shape and provides consistent support for longer periods.

Product Details

Energy Suspension is known for making durable polyurethane suspension components. These strut rod bushings are designed to replace the original rubber ones on your 1961-1969 Lincoln Continental, which can become soft and worn over time. By upgrading to these, you'll notice improved stability, especially during hard braking or acceleration.

These bushings are made from Energy's Hyper-Flex polyurethane, a material chosen for its ability to handle stress and resist wear better than stock rubber. This means they help reduce common issues like wheel roll-under when you stop abruptly, which is particularly noticeable if you're running performance tires. For front-wheel-drive applications, they also help diminish wheel hop and traction loss when accelerating from a standstill, all while helping to maintain proper alignment under demanding conditions.
