Installation position and purpose of a control arm rubber repair kit

02-19,2025

On a vehicle, a control arm rubber repair kit is installed on all aluminum support arms of the front suspension.

Installation position of a control arm rubber repair kit

Control arm rubber repair kits are mainly used to prevent problems such as vibration and noise caused by direct rigid connection between the suspension system and the subframe. The soft connection established through the bushing can cushion the impact of suspension movement, stabilize the suspension system, and improve vehicle comfort.

Symptoms of a failed control arm rubber repair kit:

An aged or cracked bushing can cause deviation of the steering wheel, abnormal chassis noise, a sense of loose suspension, unstable and inaccurate direction under high speeds, and severe vibration of the vehicle body during startup or braking.

Causes of a failed control arm rubber repair kit:

Rubber is used as the cushioning material for the bushing, and it can naturally oxidize and age after long use.

On vehicles that often run on bumpy roads, the chassis bushing is prone to loosening and cracking due to frequent severe impact of the suspension.
