Toyota 4Runner Bushings & Body Mounts

Worn bushings and collapsed body mounts are the hidden culprit behind the rattle, wander, and imprecise steering feel that high-mileage 4Runners develop, and Toyota 4Runner Bushings & Body Mounts covers the full range of rubber and polyurethane components that bring the chassis back to the precision it was designed for. Fresh bushings restore the alignment and compliance the suspension was engineered around and are often cheaper than chasing the same result with alignment adjustments alone.

 

Polyurethane is the common upgrade over factory rubber for 4Runner control arm and sway bar bushings since it resists compression and creep far better than OEM rubber, but greasing polyurethane bushings during installation is critical since the material squeaks against metal when run dry. Body mount condition is worth inspecting on any high-mileage 4Runner before attempting a lift since cracked or collapsed mounts allow cab movement that compounds the misalignment a lift creates.
