FAQ
What vehicles are compatible with this bushing kit?
The kit fits any front control arm that uses the OEM part number 11205 or model 1‑1205. Refer to your vehicle’s service manual to confirm compatibility.
Do I need additional tools to install the kit?
Standard hand tools such as a socket set, torque wrench, and a bushing press are sufficient. No specialized equipment is required.
How does polyurethane compare to rubber bushings?
Polyurethane offers higher tensile strength, better resistance to oil and chemicals, and a longer service life while still providing the flexibility needed for suspension movement. It also reduces the likelihood of squeaking.
Can the bushings be re‑greased after installation?
Yes, the built‑in grease pockets allow for periodic re‑greasing if desired, though the initial fill typically lasts the life of the bushing under normal driving conditions.
What warranty does Prothane provide?
Prothane offers a limited one‑year warranty covering defects in material and workmanship, giving you peace of mind with your purchase.
