Trailing arm bushing (front) ?

Hi guys! Î'm new here but an old lancer owner! Driving now a RA 2006 and I Love it! I'm the kind of man that do all his work by itself. My problem is the rear trailing arm bushing on driver side is completely dead! Is there anybody that can help me find that bushing? The arm is now completely removed and waiting for the new one!

Sorry for my english I'm french from quebec in canada!

what I have now are perfectly serviceable trailing arm bushings that I would like to replace with harder urethane bushings, so I don't get why what you posted is any better...and I'm quite capable of doing my own homework, believe me, but thanks for the link that yet again contains no trailing arm bushings...

I scrolled down and saw this



"Rear Control arm - lower inner & outer bushing"

And thought that was what you needed. Feel free to add pics or be more specific about what you need.



If you googled and found nothing, then we may not have any better luck, unfortunately.

You said the bushing is dead. If it's serviceable, then why not just service it?

I think you have me confused with the OP...my bushings are fine, and when I say serviceable, I mean the military term meaning fit for service...


anyway, our rear suspension is very different because our cars are FWD, so there is no rear subframe, it's just a trailing arm, control arm, and control link...the OP, unless he's mixed up is looking for the bushing on the far right in this picture, that big ugly hunk of metal, is what our trailing arms look like...the first link you posted contained replacement bushings, which is perfect for the OP, I was just correcting you, in that there are no whiteline or energy suspension components for this application...hope this helps...

ah, you are right. i did get the posts mixed up, sorry. i did see some bushings, but not the larger front one, no. strange they would make some, but not all. i'm guessing because they cross reference with other cars.
i THINK to replace that front one, the arm has to be replaced. for some reason that's ringing a bell.
