Gm Control Arm Bushing

The GM Control Arm Bushing from Energy Suspension is a rear trailing arm bushing engineered for GM B-Body vehicles manufactured between 1978 and 1996. This polyurethane replacement component addresses worn factory rubber bushings that degrade under suspension stress, causing alignment drift, increased vibration, and compromised handling response. Whether you're restoring a classic muscle car, upgrading a patrol or tactical support vehicle, or maintaining fleet performance standards, this Hyper-Flex bushing restores suspension geometry precision and extends component life significantly.

Manufactured from durable polyurethane elastomer, the GM Control Arm Bushing resists degradation from UV exposure, thermal cycling, and chemical contamination—conditions that rapidly destroy original rubber compounds. The black polyurethane formulation maintains elasticity across temperature extremes while providing superior load-bearing capacity compared to OEM specifications. The Hyper-Flex design allows controlled articulation during suspension travel while minimizing parasitic movement, which directly improves tire contact patch consistency and reduces premature wear patterns. This kit format simplifies installation and ensures you receive all necessary components for complete trailing arm bushing replacement on rear suspension assemblies.

Technicians and fleet maintenance personnel managing Gen X Chevrolet Caprices, Impalas, Cadillac Fleetwoods, and other B-Body platform vehicles will recognize this bushing as essential preventive maintenance between 80,000 and 150,000 miles depending on driving conditions. Installation requires standard suspension tools and removal of the rear trailing arm assembly; moderate mechanical skill is recommended. The polyurethane construction outlasts replacement intervals by 2–3x versus factory rubber, making this a cost-effective upgrade for high-use tactical and law enforcement fleets. Verify fitment against your specific model year and suspension configuration before ordering.
