2017 Subaru Outback Subframe Bushings

Subaru’s rear subframe is mounted on rubber voided bushings which allows for a significant amount of compliance/movement in the frame during high cornering loads. Whiteline’s low compliance polymer bushings eliminate this condition by positively locking in the frame position and removing the ‘lateral walking’ found when using high grip tires. The polymer bushing design has soft ‘stand-off’ buffers on the top and bottom surfaces of the bushing to allow slight vertical bushing movement of the subframe to eliminate that ‘rock-solid’ NVH feel and cushion against minor bumps and allow solid positive location when high torque and power is applied.

Product Features:

• Install guide included providing detailed instructions on how to install your new Whiteline purchase.
• Protective plating on all metal components acts as a hard skin that is much tougher than conventional paint allowing this product to withstand the toughest conditions and resist corrosion for years to come.
• Whiteline’s latest technology synthetic elastomer formulation boasts resistance to oil, grease, ozone and weathering.
• Supplied with extreme pressure molybdenum disulphide (LM) based grease for extended life.

Not your typical remove and replace bushing kit but simple installation means great for the DIYer’s. Designed to work with the original bushing and eliminate over compliance or better known in motorsport as ‘lost motion’ of the rear crossmember. This Whiteline kit dramatically reduces rear cross member misalignment and movement which allows a more positive feel from the rear end during cornering.

Product Features:

• Inserts are designed to work with the original factory bushing rather than replacing it.
• Internal grease reservoirs provide continual self lubrication for optimum friction management.
• Specially bonded design for optimised strength typically required in high load bearing applications.
