Summary: The Energy Suspension Front Strut Rod Bushing is engineered to replace the original, short-lived, and soft OEM rubber components that often lead to poor handling and alignment issues. Constructed from proprietary Hyper-Flex™ Polyurethane, these black bushings provide the necessary firmness to maintain suspension geometry under load. This upgrade is designed to last 5 to 10 times longer than conventional rubber components while significantly improving steering response and stability. By upgrading to Energy Suspension, you ensure a more durable and performance-oriented connection between your vehicle’s chassis and suspension components.

Features

• Hyper-Flex™ Polyurethane Material: High-performance polyurethane provides increased durability and performance, lasting 5 to 10 times longer than conventional rubber components.
• Wheel Roll-Under Reduction: Advanced material density helps reduce common wheel “roll under” that occurs during abrupt stopping, especially when utilizing performance tires.
• Enhanced Traction Control: Proper durometer polyurethane diminishes wheel hop and traction loss during standing start accelerations to ensure better power delivery.
• Alignment Stability: Engineering-grade components better maintain proper alignment under extreme driving conditions for improved steering response.
• Limited 7 Year or 750,000 Mile Warranty: Provides long-term peace of mind and quality assurance for your vehicle’s suspension system.
