vinder1 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 While performing some basic maintenance on my 05 Legacy 2.5I with 50,000 miles I notice that the front control arm (or A arm) bushing shows some damage. This bushing is attached to the car body and keeps the control arm from being pushed back. The bushing shows signs that the rubber has lost contact with the metal suround and has a torn out section (approx 5/8") clearly visible. The picture shows the bushing from the top but both top an bottom look similar. Both sides of the car show the same bushing problem. The car has mostly highway miles an has never been offroad or handled rough. Is this reason for concern? Should these bushings be replaced? Has anyone had a similar problem? Any help is greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
