Power steering, aggressive wheel alignment geometry, wider wheels and lower profile tyres have all put radically increased loading on the steering systems of modern cars. Add to that engine bay contaminants such as oil leaks that also help to degrade the performance of steering rack mount bushings. Nolathane steering rack mounts are engineered to outlast and enhance steering precision and feedback.
Soft factory bushings whilst they do a good job of not transmitting engine vibration, they do create vague and unresponsiveness in the vehicles drive train. Under hard acceleration, the engine and transmission rotates, Nolathane engine mount bushings work in conjunction with the OE rubber bushing giving your car better throttle response as well as more crisp and defined gear shifts.
Excellent bushings for my Bilstein B8 5100 w/ OME coil
Excellent bushings! Just replaced top strut mount for Bilstein B8 5100 w/ OME coils on V8 4Runner. Very nice fitment, a bit thick with very little compression under load, seem very durable. Hoping to get longer life out of these compared to the KYB rubbers previously installed.
We'd been chasing this last wobble for a while. Turns out parts we'd replaced 6 months ago failed. They were the old style bushings, rubber encased in iron. The rubber broke loose and looked shredded. We finally were able to drive test with the nolathane bushings. Our 99 4runner rides stable again! Highly recommend these!
my Tahoe has a 4/6indrop kit on it. This sway bar kit was by far the best suspension upgrade I could have done to it. The kit was complete with brackets and bushings, even endlinks for the front. I wish I had installed these sooner!
