Powerflex Rear Trailing Arm Bushings – 1985–1992 Volkswagen Golf Mk2 Syncro 4WD

Powerflex Rear Trailing Arm Bushings for 1985–1992 Volkswagen Golf Mk2 Syncro 4WD.

Function and design

A suspension arm bushing forms a controlled mounting point between the arm and its supporting structure. Compliance at that joint allows movement under load; the condition and construction of the bushing influence how consistently the arm locates the wheel.

What to consider

For a suspension refresh, replacing deteriorated mounting bushings addresses movement at the joint rather than changing the spring or damper rate. Final steering and handling behavior also depends on the remaining joints, tires and alignment.
