Designed for use in vehicle suspension systems, this
Febi Control Arm Bush Kit – MPN 01692 – provides essential damping and allows for controlled movement of the suspension. It is a critical link between the control arm and the vehicle chassis. This kit, proudly made in Germany, improves handling and ride comfort by absorbing road impacts. Its dimensions are 81 x 160 x 51 mm, with a height of 38mm, an inner diameter of 14mm, and an outer diameter of 44mm. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions.
Control arm bushings are elastomeric or polyurethane components installed within the control arm assembly, connecting it to the vehicle’s chassis or subframe. These bushings dampen vibrations and allow controlled movement of the suspension, maintaining wheel alignment and ride quality. They articulate with the control arm and frame via a pressed-in or bolted design, accommodating suspension travel while resisting deformation under load. Material durometer varies based on application, influencing handling precision and NVH characteristics. Failure manifests as clunking noises, imprecise steering, or uneven tire wear, necessitating bushing replacement to restore suspension geometry and performance.
