Troubleshooting

Vehicle pulls to one side after installation.

This typically indicates an alignment issue. The vehicle's wheel alignment needs to be checked and adjusted by a professional technician after suspension work.

New clunking or rattling noises from the suspension.

Ensure the bushing was installed correctly and the control arm is securely fastened. Double-check that no other suspension components are worn or loose.

Steering feels imprecise or loose.

Verify that the correct part number was used and that both bushings (if replacing both on an axle) were installed. An alignment check may also be necessary.
