What makes Nolathane different from OEM suspension components?

Nolathane suspension products are engineered for performance and durability well beyond OEM standards. While factory (OEM) components often use soft rubber bushings that degrade over time and under load, Nolathane uses advanced polyurethane and bushing technology that resists oil, heat, abrasion, and weathering. This results in sharper handling, more responsive steering, better load control, and significantly improved lifespan — without the harshness of traditional solid bushings.

Do I need a wheel alignment after installing Nolathane components?

It’s recommended to perform a wheel alignment after installation to ensure optimal performance and tire wear.

Are Nolathane Fixed Offset Upper Control Arms (UCAs) necessary for lifted vehicles?

They help maintain correct alignment and steering geometry after a vehicle is lifted.

Can I install Nolathane products myself?

Some products are DIY-friendly, but professional installation is recommended for suspension components.

Do Nolathane products come with a warranty?

Yes. Please refer to our warranty policy for details.

Description

Benefit Note:
Not your typical remove and replace bushing kit but simple installation means great for the DIYer's. Designed to work with the original bushing and eliminate over compliance or better known in motorsport as 'lost motion'. This Nolathane kit dramatically reduces rear cross member misalignment and movement which allows a more positive feel from the rear end during cornering.
