These polyurethane or bronze bushings press into the trailing arm eyes and cradle the link pin, absorbing road shock and eliminating sloppy front-end feel. Sold as a pack of 4 — enough for one complete front axle rebuild.\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've upgraded to 7\/8\" chromoly link pins (EMPI 17-2555-0), these are the matching bushings you need.
