Front Control Arm Bushings - Subaru Forester - w51710
Whiteline Control Arm Bushings
A control arm bushing plays a vital role in a suspension. Replace those faulty O.E. rubber bushings with Whiteline's synthetic elastomer control arm bushings. These elastomer bushings provide the longevity and performance needed to maximize a suspension's efficiency.
Whiteline's synthetic elastomer is a firmer bushing than the O.E. Not only does this increase the longevity of the bushing, but it gives the suspension a boost in handling performance. With a firmer bushing, there will be a slight increase in NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness), but most drivers prefer the boost in performance in spite of that.
The Faulty O.E.
As your suspension travels, a rubber control arm bushing is repeatedly stretching and flexing. After a while, the center sleeve begins to sag and your suspension alignment is throw out of whack. The sagging will go on until the rubber fails completely.

Corrected the alignment problem right away and tightened the steering, but these transfer all kinds of road noise to the interior. Really need to be used in conjunction with W51709.\nEditors Note: The poly urethane bushing is stiffer than OEM rubber. You will notice more road noise and stiffer ride. With poly urethane bushings this will enhance the handling characteristics of your vehicle.

I replaced the rear bushing which was a snap due to the fact that I could use my press to disassemble and reinstall the new one. The result was a much more rigid front end which really improved the handling of my old Subaru. I am thinking of doing all the rear suspension bushings now.
