idosubaru Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) I was looking for Outback rear control arm bushings/transverse bushings and they are "different" left to right but how? It looks like one "could" fit both sides...so how are they different? I even saw them listed as the same part in one place....

Fairtax4me Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 On the 90-99 models the rear pivot of the control arm is sort of cone shaped. The inner sleeve of the bushing is shaped to match, so the bushings only fit one way. I only found this out when I tried to use a right side bushing on the left side of my legacy.

idosubaru Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 odd - cardoc on subarutoutback.org said the mounting brackets are slightly different but bushings are the same...you say bushings are different...or maybe it's both and the bushing has to be installed a certain side. still confused...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
