Prothane 7-1210-BL Rear Track Arm Panhard Bar Bushing Kit Black

The Prothane 7-1210-BL is a rear track arm bushing kit — also known as a Panhard bar bushing kit — engineered from premium-grade polyurethane to restore and improve rear suspension control. This black kit is a direct upgrade over worn factory rubber bushings that deteriorate over time and allow unwanted lateral suspension movement.

The track arm (Panhard rod) is a critical rear suspension component responsible for keeping the axle laterally centered under the vehicle. High-quality track arm bushings are essential for maintaining proper suspension alignment, reducing body roll, and maximizing overall handling precision.

Key Features:

• Premium polyurethane construction — resists pressure, heat, and corrosion far better than OEM rubber
• Black color with graphite additive — the small amount of graphite mixed into the compound helps minimize squeaking
• Precision-machined fit — designed for accurate, drop-in fitment with no modification required
• Includes pre-lube — supplied grease ensures quiet operation when properly applied at installation
• Same durometer as red Prothane units — identical hardness and performance characteristics regardless of color choice
• Lifetime warranty — Prothane guarantees the product to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the original purchaser's vehicle

Polyurethane bushings offer a significant durability advantage over OEM rubber, which tends to crack, compress, and fail under repeated stress. Note that the increased stiffness of polyurethane may result in a slight increase in noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) compared to soft factory rubber — a worthwhile trade-off for the gains in handling response and bushing longevity.
