04-07 Cadillac CTS-V Greaseable Control Arm Bushings
The factory Cadillac control arm bushings are a common problem on the first generation CTS-V and are also known to fail prematurely. Additionally, the OEM control arm bushings are soft and allow deflection which in turn creates less than desirable handling characteristics. Replace those less than desirable OEM bushings with our polyurethane bushings and enjoy better handling. The design of our bushings and the hardware allows for grease to be pumped into the bushing for increased longevity. Furthermore, the grease also helps keep the bushings from squeaking. We suggest you grease these bushings every oil change.
We offer our own formulation of grease for use with our bushings. You can view that grease here – https://creative-steel.com/shop/mercedes/slk-class/slk55-05-10-r171/cs-14oz-polyurethane-grease-tube/
Front upper control arm utilizes 4 polyurethane bushings (2 bushings per arm)
- Bushings in your choice of hardness
- Stainless plates
- Greaseable bolts with flat washers
Front lower control arm utilizes 4 polyurethane bushings. (2 bushings per arm)
- Bushings in your choice of hardness
- Stainless plates
- Greaseable bolts with flat washers
Our polyurethane control arm bushings for the Cadillac CTS-V are available in two hardnesses-
- Daily driver black – Stiffer than the OEM rubber bushings, meanwhile retaining the OEM bushing NVH (noise, vibration , harshness).
- Race red – Substantially stiffer than OEM rubber bushings. These bushings are for customers that race or track their car. Increase in NVH levels are imminent.
