xdeadeye1 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Friends subaru makes clunk noise over speed bump. Pulled wheel. Looked. All seems normal. But the driver side front lower control arm, rear bushing is fubar. Im looking on rock auto, but cant see a replacement. Is this subaru only part? Or am i looking in the wrong place? Thanks for any help. John Marietta OH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 (edited) I admit to not having experience with newer cars, but likely that bushing in your control arm can be pressed out and a new one installed. You will want to find a highly rated full service shop, or check with the dealer. If you have the skills, you could remove the arm and take it to a shop with a hydraulic press and have them swap the bushing out. Someone here may know of a subaru-friendly independent shop near marietta. Edited July 10, 2023 by 1 Lucky Texan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subaru parts websites have a "What this fits" tab that will show you all the models that part is used one. Check there and www.car-part.com Edited July 11, 2023 by idosubaru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
