Also known as a lower wishbone bush or suspension arm bushing, it isolates road vibration, absorbs impact, and maintains correct suspension geometry. This bushing fits both left and right sides at the front position of the front lower control arm.
This part is part of a supersession family: LR084108 → LR100072 → LR148836 → LR174897, with LR174897 being the current recommended version.

Signs of Failure
Clunk or thud from front suspension when braking – caused by front lower control arm hydro-bushing movement
Loose handling – altered suspension geometry affecting steering precision
Uneven tyre wear – front alignment not holding
Knocking over bumps or speed bumps – bushing hardened or cracked
💡 Technical Service Bulletin Note: Land Rover TSB specifically identifies a clunk/thud from the front suspension when braking as being caused by front lower suspension arm hydro-bushing movement. The remedy is to replace the bushings in pairs and renew the subframe retaining bolts.
Critical – Verify Your VIN Before Ordering
Suspension bushings are VIN-, wheel-size-, and model-year-specific. Provide your VIN – our team confirms exact compatibility before dispatch. We cannot accept returns for misordered parts without VIN verification.
💡 Installation Tip: Professional installation recommended – a hydraulic press is required to remove and install the bushing in the control arm. Replace in pairs (both sides) and renew the subframe bolts (they cannot be reused). Perform a wheel alignment after installation.
