What is the main benefit of using polyurethane strut bushings?

Polyurethane is firmer than rubber, which reduces flex and deflection in the suspension. This leads to improved steering response and a more solid feel when driving.

Do these bushings come as a set?

This product includes the upper strut bushings for your vehicle's front suspension. You will receive the necessary bushings to replace the worn ones in the factory strut mounts.

Are these difficult to install?

These bushings are designed as a direct replacement for the factory parts. Installation typically involves removing the strut assembly and pressing out the old bushings to install the new ones.

Product Details

Prothane is known for making well-built polyurethane suspension components, and these upper strut bushings for your 1975-1984 Volkswagen Rabbit are no exception. When your original strut mount bushings wear out, they can lead to sloppy steering and a less connected feel to the road. Replacing them with these red polyurethane units from Prothane can help restore that crispness.

Polyurethane is a popular choice for suspension bushings because it offers a good balance between durability and performance. It's firmer than rubber, which means less flex and deflection in the suspension, leading to improved steering response and a more solid feel when cornering. These bushings are designed to fit right into the factory strut mount location, making them a straightforward replacement for worn-out rubber parts.

This set includes the bushings needed for your Rabbit's front upper strut mounts. If you're looking to firm up the front end of your classic VW, these Prothane bushings are a solid option.
