The supplier's fitment chart names the 1995–1998 Nissan 240SX coupe with the 2.4L four-cylinder engine. Easy Life Markets sells it for owners who are rebuilding or modifying the underside of one of these cars and want to replace soft, worn factory rubber with a rigid part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA bushing is the piece that sits between two parts of the chassis or suspension and decides how much they are allowed to move against each other. Factory bushings are rubber because rubber soaks up noise and vibration. The price is that rubber flexes under load, and on a car that is twenty-five years old or more it has usually cracked or gone soft. The \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bushing_(isolator)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003ebushing\u003c\/a\u003e article explains the idea in more detail. As the photos show, the pieces in this listing are rigid, machined-looking parts and not rubber ones, so they are aimed at people who want movement taken out, not comfort added.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You Get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier's packing list reads \"Suspension system retainer bush x 1\".

With no rubber to squash, the part it locates stays where it is under power, braking and cornering, which is what drift and track owners of these cars are after. The other side of the trade is that rubber was also filtering noise. Expect to hear and feel more from the driveline and the road after a rigid bushing goes in. On a weekend or competition car most owners accept that. On a quiet daily driver, think about whether you want it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen the Old Bushings Are Finished\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCracked, split or oil-soaked rubber when you look at the mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA clunk from under the car when you come on or off the throttle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe car feeling loose or shifting at the rear under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlignment settings that do not hold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisible movement at the mount when a helper rocks the car\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupport the car on stands rated for its weight and support the part you are unbolting as well.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOld rubber bushings are often pressed or bonded in.
