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

Polyurethane bushings offer a firmer ride and more direct suspension response compared to stock rubber bushings. They resist degradation better than rubber, helping to maintain their performance over time.

Do these bushings come with all the necessary hardware for installation?

This kit includes the control arm bushings themselves. It's recommended to check the manufacturer's installation guide or consult with a mechanic to confirm if any additional hardware, like new bolts or sleeves, is needed for your specific application.

How difficult is the installation of these control arm bushings?

Installation typically involves removing the old rubber bushings and pressing in the new polyurethane ones. While it's a common suspension job, it may require specialized tools for pressing the bushings in and out, and it's best done by someone with mechanical experience.

Product Details

Made from a red polyurethane compound, these front control arm bushings from Prothane are built to replace the worn-out rubber components in your 1963-1982 Chevrolet Corvette. Polyurethane is a well-known material in suspension upgrades because it offers a firmer ride than stock rubber without the harshness you might get from solid metal components. This means you get a more connected feel to the road and more predictable handling, especially when cornering or braking hard.

When your original control arm bushings start to break down, you'll often notice sloppy steering, uneven tire wear, and a general lack of precision in your car's handling. Replacing them with a well-built polyurethane set like these from Prothane can bring back that tight, responsive feel. The red color is also a nice touch if you're looking to add some visual appeal under the hood or to your suspension setup. They are designed to fit right into the factory control arms, making the installation process straightforward for someone comfortable working on their suspension.
