If ordinary wheel balancing procedures prove unsuccessful in eliminating steering wheel vibration, a harder control arm rear bushing may be installed.

REQUIRED PART: Description Part No. Quantity bushing 1359812-2 X



When installed on the left control arm only, this hard bushing can reduce sensitivity to wheel vibration at approximately 68 MPH (110 km/h)*.

Only if steering wheel vibration is still noticeable, the hard bushing may be installed on the right side; however, more sensitivity to vibration may occur at speeds above 80 MPH (130 km/h)*.
* Posted speed limits should, of course, always be observed!
