Yes, the Febi 175451 is designed to be used on either the left or right side of the front axle.
Yes, it is highly recommended to use a hydraulic press to safely install the bushing without damaging the control arm.
The bushing has an outer diameter of 61 mm, a thickness of 52 mm, and an inner diameter of 12 mm.
Calibration is specifically required if your vehicle is equipped with driver assistance systems that rely on suspension height or alignment data.
It is recommended that this component be installed by a competent individual with access to proper automotive tools and a repair manual for your specific vehicle model.
Ensure the housing is clean and free of debris. Use proper press sleeves that match the 61mm diameter to apply even pressure.
The vehicle's driver assistance system likely requires a recalibration because the suspension geometry was disturbed during the repair.
Verify that all suspension fasteners are torqued to the manufacturer's specification and check other related components like ball joints for wear.
Installation should only be performed by a competent individual using appropriate suspension tools, such as a hydraulic press, to avoid damaging the new bushing or the control arm housing. Before beginning, ensure the vehicle is safely supported on jack stands and that the suspension is properly unloaded. Clean the control arm housing thoroughly before pressing the new Febi bushing into place to ensure a proper seat. Once installed, verify the alignment settings to guarantee the vehicle tracks straight. Maintenance-wise, periodically inspect the bushing for signs of dry rotting, cracking, or excessive play during routine oil changes or tire rotations.
