Prothane 87-88 Ford T-Bird/Cougar Front Control Arm Bushings - Black

If you're noticing a bit of looseness in your front end or your alignment isn't holding like it used to on your 1987-1988 Ford Thunderbird or Mercury Cougar, it might be time to replace the front control arm bushings. These are the pieces that sit between your control arm and the frame, and over time, the original rubber ones can crack, compress, or even disintegrate, leading to sloppy handling and uneven tire wear.

This kit from Prothane uses durable polyurethane material, which is known for being more resistant to the elements and wear than standard rubber. Polyurethane bushings offer a firmer connection between the suspension components and the chassis, which can result in a more responsive feel when you turn the wheel and help maintain proper suspension geometry. They are a well-built replacement for worn-out factory bushings, helping to bring back some of that original crispness to your car's handling.

Replacing these bushings is a common job when rebuilding the front suspension. Make sure you have the right tools and a good service manual for your specific vehicle to ensure a smooth installation process.
