Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires a mechanical press to remove the old bushing and insert the new Febi Bilstein component without damaging the control arm housing. Always inspect the control arm for stress cracks before installation. A critical care instruction is to ensure that all mounting bolts are only fully torqued while the vehicle's wheels are resting on the ground under the car's own weight. This prevents 'pre-tensioning' the rubber, which significantly extends the service life of the bushing by preventing it from being twisted in a static state.
