The work conditions of the stabilizer bushings

Problems with the functioning of the stabilizer bushings are usually indicated by all kinds of knocks and noises that appear when driving (especially on tight turns). Their appearance indicates the loss of the elasticity of the part (because of this, the sleeve becomes too rigid), or that dust or sand has got under this part. Also, the product may become unusable due to the appearance of cracks and scratches on it due to the fact that its service life will end.

In addition to extraneous noise, problems with this part are indicated by a temporary loss of control of the car, the appearance of a backlash in the connecting nodes of the stabilizer and the occurrence of lateral body roll. Regular inspection of the products will help to identify and correct the malfunction in a timely manner. In most cases, the bushings cannot be repaired: they can only be dismantled and replaced with new ones.
