Whiteline built the Front Control Arm Lower Inner Rear Bushing (Standard Repl.) for the 2003 Volkswagen Golf/GTI 20th Anniversary (1J). Trim named on the listing: 20th Anniversary. Application note: Standard Replacement. The kit contains 2 shell bushings and 2 tubes. Position: front. Part number W53188.
When a control arm bushing fails, the wheel is no longer held where it should be under braking and over bumps. This is a like-for-like replacement: it restores the original pivot behavior and ride comfort rather than changing them.
Expect a difficult job of about 2.5 hours. An alignment is required after installation. Other Whiteline parts we list for the Golf/GTI: Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Heavy Duty Blade Adjustable 24mm Rear Sway Bar.
