The Problem
On many late model vehicles like the Chrysler Sebring & Cirrus, Dodge Stratus & Neon, Chevrolet Cobalt & Malibu and Honda Odyssey, OE-style bushings are made of hard rubber bonded to the housing and sleeve. During suspension travel, the rubber of the vertical bushing is stretched and compressed. This repeated stress can lead to the rubber separating from the housing or bolt sleeve in as little as 30,000 miles. In addition, when replacing with a similar OE-style bushing, the hard rubber makes it difficult to align the sleeve with the hole in the frame. Installing the bolt is typically very difficult.

The Solution
The patented MOOG® Problem Solver® control arm bushing features an innovative ball-and-socket design that eliminates the rubber expansion and compression that leads to premature failure in traditional rubber bushings.
The new MOOG design provides improved steering and handling feel while lasting up to 10 times longer than traditional hard-rubber bushings.
The control arm bushing assembly is permanently lubricated and sealed with premium MOOG boots to prevent contamination.
The exclusive MOOG bushing design also makes it easier to install the control arm assembly by allowing the technician to easily align the bushing sleeve to insert the bolt, saving time and frustration.

Technician can easily align the bushing sleeve to the bolt hole.

Design allows smooth rotational movement.

Sealed MOOG polyurethane boot keeps contaminants out.
Exclusive ball & socket design.
Permanently lubricated assembly.
