Energy Suspension Polyurethane Front Control Arm Bushings
2005–2010 Scion tC
8.3120G
Overview:
The Energy Suspension Polyurethane Front Control Arm Bushings are engineered specifically for the 2005 to 2010 Scion tC, designed to replace the factory rubber bushings with a more durable and performance-oriented polyurethane material. These bushings provide enhanced suspension stability and improved alignment control, especially during aggressive driving conditions such as cornering, hard braking, and rapid acceleration.
Ideal for enthusiasts who have modified their Scion tC with lowered or raised suspension setups, these bushings help maintain proper suspension geometry by resisting the distortion and deflection common with softer OEM rubber components. This results in sharper handling, reduced wheel hop, and a more responsive driving experience.
Key Features:
Energy Suspension’s polyurethane bushings offer a significant upgrade over stock rubber with the following benefits:
- Constructed from high-performance polyurethane for superior durability and resistance to wear
- Maintains better caster and camber alignment under load for improved handling precision
- Full floating, non-binding design ensures smooth suspension articulation without binding or premature wear
- Reduces suspension deflection during cornering, braking, and acceleration
- Controls wheel hop for enhanced traction and stability
- Ideal for vehicles with altered ride height where suspension loads increase
- Improves steering response and overall vehicle control
- Available in Red (8.3120R) and Graphite Black (8.3120G) color options
Construction & Design:
These front control arm bushings are crafted from a proprietary polyurethane formulation that balances firmness and flexibility to provide optimal suspension performance. Unlike OEM rubber, polyurethane resists oil, chemicals, and environmental degradation, ensuring long-lasting durability. The bushings feature a full floating design that prevents binding and allows for natural suspension movement, which is critical when ride height or suspension geometry is modified.
The precision-molded bushings fit directly into the control arms and work in conjunction with plated outer metal shells (included in many kits) to provide a secure and stable mounting point. This design helps maintain suspension alignment and reduces unwanted movement that can negatively affect handling.
Installation & Fitment:
Installation of the Energy Suspension front control arm bushings is straightforward and designed to be a direct replacement for the factory rubber bushings on the 2005–2010 Scion tC. No special modifications are required, making it suitable for both professional installers and experienced DIY enthusiasts. Proper tools for suspension disassembly and reassembly are recommended to ensure correct fitment and torque specifications.
These bushings are compatible with both stock and modified suspension setups, including lowered or lifted vehicles, where maintaining proper suspension geometry is critical for performance and safety.
