[More Info]
This one-piece control arm bushing kit restores rear upper and rear lower suspension mounts for classic American cars from 1964–1978. Designed to replace worn or deteriorated rubber bushings, the kit secures control arms, reduces play and vibration, and re-establishes correct wheel alignment and handling. Durable materials provide long-lasting performance for restoration projects and routine maintenance, helping preserve original ride quality while simplifying installation for DIY mechanics and professional shops.
Features:
  • Fitment: 1964–1978 American Motors, Buick, Chevrolet, GMC, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models (rear upper & rear lower control arm bushing locations).
  • Complete 1-piece kit provides both rear upper and rear lower control arm bushings for a matched replacement.
  • Durable elastomer material resists oil, road salt, and aging to extend service life and maintain suspension geometry.
  • Restores tight steering response and reduces rear axle movement, vibration, and noise.
  • Direct-replacement design fits factory mounting points for an accurate, restoration-grade fit.
  • Easy-to-install design suitable for garage repairs and professional restoration projects.
Installation / Application:
  • Difficulty: 3/5
  • Estimated time: 1–2 hours per axle (typical)
Suggested Tools:
  • jack and jack stands or lift
  • wheel chocks
  • socket and ratchet set
  • torque wrench
  • breaker bar
  • hammer or mallet
  • bushing driver or appropriate-size socket
  • press or C-clamp (optional)
  • penetrating oil
  • screwdrivers or pry bar
  • safety glasses and gloves
Instructions:
  1. Park vehicle on level ground, engage parking brake, and chock front wheels.
  2. Raise the rear of the vehicle with a jack and support securely on jack stands; remove the rear wheels.
  3. Apply penetrating oil to control arm mounting bolts and let soak if rusted.
  4. Loosen and remove bolts/nuts securing the rear upper and rear lower control arms to the axle and frame. Support the control arm as you remove fasteners.
  5. If necessary, remove the control arm from the vehicle to access the bushings more easily.
  6. Press or drive out the old bushings using a hydraulic press, bushing driver, or appropriately sized socket and mallet. Be careful not to damage control arm bores.
  7. Clean the control arm bushing bores of rust and debris. Lightly lubricate the new bushing outer surface with a compatible bushing lubricant if recommended.
  8. Install the new bushing into the control arm bore using a press or bushing driver. Ensure the bushing is fully seated and oriented correctly.
  9. Reinstall control arm to vehicle, inserting bolts and hand-tightening nuts. Torque fasteners to the vehicle manufacturer’s specifications with a torque wrench.
  10. Lower the vehicle, torque wheel lug nuts to spec, and perform a test drive. Have wheel alignment checked and adjusted as needed after bushing replacement for proper handling and tire wear.
