What is passive steer and how do these bushings help?

Passive steer is when the rear axle moves under load, causing the car to feel like it's steering itself. Worn bushings allow this movement. These SuperPro bushings create a more solid connection, keeping the axle in place and reducing this effect for more stable handling.

What material are these bushings made from?

These bushings are made from a durable polyurethane material. Polyurethane is known for its resilience and ability to withstand the stresses of suspension movement better than standard rubber over time.

Do I need any special tools to install these bushings?

Installation typically involves removing the old bushings and pressing in the new ones. While it's a bolt-on part, having a good set of wrenches and possibly a bushing removal/installation tool can make the job easier. Refer to your vehicle's service manual for specific procedures.

Product Details

The rear spring bushings on your MG Midget are crucial for keeping the rear axle stable, and worn ones can lead to some unsettling driving characteristics. These SuperPro bushings are made from a durable polyurethane material, which offers a more solid connection than the original rubber. When the stock bushings degrade, they allow the rear axle to shift, which can cause the car to feel like it's steering itself under acceleration or braking, a phenomenon often called passive steer. You might also notice the car wandering around the lane, especially when carrying a load or towing.

By replacing those old, tired rubber bushings with these SuperPro polyurethane units, you'll get a much more controlled feel from the rear end. They help keep the axle planted where it should be, leading to a more stable ride, particularly during hard braking or when the suspension is working harder. This kit is designed to fit right into your Midget's rear spring setup, giving you an improved handling experience without major modifications.
