suspension dudes Front Radius Arm Bushing Kit (Pair) — Direct-Fit, Made in USA for Ford & Mazda 1987–1997

These are front suspension radius arm bushings designed to replace worn mounts and restore alignment control on select Ford and Mazda trucks and SUVs.

If your vehicle exhibits wandering steering, clunks from the front end over bumps, or uneven tire wear, the radius arm bushings are a common wear item to inspect. Radius arm bushings connect the radius arm to the frame and absorb vibration and movement so toe and tracking remain stable. This pair of replacement bushings from suspension dudes is a direct-fit solution for many Ford models from the late 1980s through the late 1990s and several Mazda trucks that share the same chassis components.

How will replacing these bushings affect steering and alignment?

Fresh radius arm bushings reduce unwanted fore-aft movement at the frame mounting point, helping the suspension retain the toe settings you establish during alignment. That stability improves straight-line tracking and reduces wandering.

• Restores proper radius arm location during driving and braking
• Helps maintain toe settings after alignment
• Reduces front-end play that can cause steering vagueness

Which vehicles and years does this kit fit?

This kit fits many Ford full-size trucks and SUVs from 1987–1997, select Rangers and Bronco IIs, and several Mazda B-Series models and the Navajo that used the same frame mounts. Always compare part dimensions to your existing bushing before purchase for confirmation.

• Ford F-150, F-250, F-350: model years 1987–1997
• Ford Bronco: 1987–1996; also Bronco II, F250 HD and Ranger applications
• Ford Explorer: 1991–1994; Mazda B2300/B3000/B4000 and Navajo compatibility

What symptoms indicate these bushings need replacement?

Worn radius arm bushings commonly produce audible clunks over bumps, noticeable toe changes, and irregular tire edge wear. If you can visually detect split rubber, excessive free play, or metal-to-metal contact at the frame mount, replacement is recommended.

• Clunking noises from the front when hitting bumps or braking
• Wandering or inconsistent steering feel on straight roads
• Uneven tire wear such as cupping on front tires
