Whiteline Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing for 1987-2003 Volkswagen Golf/GTI GL (1H/1J)

For the 1987-2003 Volkswagen Golf/GTI (1H/1J), this front control arm bushing from Whiteline firms up the front lower control arm pivot. Age is the main enemy here: even the newest Golf/GTI covered is 23 years old, and rubber that old rarely holds its shape or stiffness.

Think of the control arm bushing as the hinge of the front suspension. A hinge with play in it makes the front end vague, and one that is too soft lets alignment change under load. This replacement is built to keep the geometry steady while the arm still moves freely.

This listing covers 17 model years, 1987 through 2003, of the Volkswagen Golf/GTI on the 1H/1J chassis. The listing names the GL version. The kit contains 4 bushings and 2 tubes. Installation is rated difficult, with about 2.5 hours of work listed. An alignment is required after installation. To go with it on the Golf/GTI, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and 12mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts.
