Front Strut Arm Bushings - Pontiac GTO - w82047e

Whiteline Performance Front Radius Rod Bushings - at Frame

There are many things we take for granted when we go to drive our cars. That the lock will release when we insert our key in the door, we take it for granted that the car will start when we engage the ignition, and that is will stop when we push on the brakes. For that last one, there are different reasons why the brakes may not work as well as we would like them to. In fact, a lot of times, it has nothing to do with the brakes. If your suspension parts are worn, this can negatively affect your GTO or Holden's braking ability. Radius rod bushings, in particular, tend to absorb most of the loads under braking, resulting in severe wear and reduced braking efficiency over time. As this is a commonly failed part, you need to replace it with Whiteline's Front Radius Rod Bushings, which comes with a Lifetime warranty to make sure you never have to buy this part again.

What's so special?

A critical service item for any Pontiac GTO 2002-2006 and Holden Commodore 1997-2006 is the front radius rod bushings at the frame. Whiteline has engineered part W82047E, which is a synthetic elastomer that is intended to replace the failed factory fluid filled bushings and eliminate excess play and deflection when compared to the factory bushing. W82047E has a bushing durometer of 70, which allows the bushings to balance performance and ride quality. The installation of this bushings kit results will greatly reduce front end dive under heavy braking and eliminates shudder and wheel movements associated with a failed bushing. Whiteline's one-of-a-kind synthetic elastomer technology helps increase performance while minimizing noise and vibrations. Installation requires the use of basic shop tools such as a press and lift. We also recommend having the alignment inspected/adjusted after installation. This install requires removal of the strut rod, and any time you do that, it is recommended that you have the vehicle aligned.
