Prothane 8-209 Front Upper Control Arm Bushing Kit Honda Civic CRX Del Sol - 88-91

The Prothane 8-209 is a front upper control arm bushing kit engineered as a direct polyurethane upgrade over worn factory rubber bushings. Deteriorated OEM rubber bushings allow the control arm to flex and shift under load, throwing off caster and camber settings and degrading steering precision. Prothane's precision-molded polyurethane construction provides the compliance resistance needed to keep suspension geometry locked in and alignment settings accurately maintained.

Key Features:

• Premium-grade polyurethane construction — significantly firmer than OEM rubber for improved handling response and longer service life
• Precision fabrication for an accurate, rattle-free fit in the OEM control arm housing
• Superior compliance resistance minimizes bushing deflection under cornering and braking loads
• Maintains alignment settings — helps preserve factory or custom caster and camber specs over time
• Available in red or black — both colors share identical durometer and performance characteristics; black variant includes a small graphite content that may help reduce squeaking
• Includes Prothane Super Grease — lubricate bushings thoroughly during installation to prevent noise in service
• Lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship for the original purchaser

Prothane polyurethane suspension components are designed as performance-oriented replacements for soft factory rubber parts. The firmer durometer extends bushing life, sharpens steering feel, and maximizes front suspension efficiency. A press or suitable vise is recommended for installation.
