Understand Control Arm Bushing - WENZHOU SAFE AUTO PARTS Co.,Ltd.

Why do I need a control arm bushing?

To understand control arm bushings, we need to first understand the transmission path of vibration.

The lower control arm is one of the control arms on the car, and its main function is to support the body and the shock absorber, and to cushion the vibration during driving. The shock absorber can play a good role to assist the lower suspension. It works in tandem with the shock absorbers and springs to form a complete suspension system. The lower arm is responsible for supporting the weight and steering, and the lower control arm has a control arm bushing, which plays a fixed role and connects to the shock absorber. The control arm bushing rotten walking will make a strange noise, the damping effect becomes worse, and the steering is heavy. Serious will lead to control arm fracture, the vehicle out of control caused by accidents.

Do I need to replace the control arm bushing when the car control arm is aging?

You can choose to replace only the auto control arm bushings, not to change the control arm.

1, the car suspension system is a link between the body and the tire components, by the suspension control arm, crankshaft, shock absorbers and springs and other components.

2, the role of the suspension system is to support the body, cushion the impact transmitted to the frame by the road, and play a shock-absorbing, smooth role, so that the car can be smooth and stick to the ground.

If you need to replace the control arm bushings, make sure to source quality components from reputable car suspension suppliers to ensure proper fit and long-lasting performance. Proper functioning of the suspension system with reliable automotive control arm bushings can ensure a comfortable ride for you and your passengers, while also maintaining control and stability on the road.

Parts of the control arm bushing cracked or damaged, such as the universal lower control arm bushing is bad, should be timely replacement, otherwise the vehicle chassis will appear loose feeling, through the potholes when the road, shaking feeling and bumpy feeling will be more intense, serious will affect the direction of control, inaccurate direction, run off and so on. Because the disassembly is more troublesome, need to use special tools, so some people will choose the entire lower control arm for replacement. Suspension components are not rigidly connected to the body, but have bushings in the middle to cushion vibration and impact. Most of the control arm bushings are made of rubber in common family cars, while in racing cars, metal control arm bushings are used to reduce the false position between the body and the suspension and make the handling more direct.
