1961-1979 Spring Plate Bushings 2 Knobby Soft Black Urethane 1 3/4 ID

These re-designed soft 1961-1979 Spring Plate Bushings replace old deteriorated rubber pieces that allow too much "slop" in suspensions. Whether off-roading, drag-racing, canyon carving or just running down the highway, these Air-Cooled Volkswagen Bushings make your car feel more solid and planted, reducing wander and shimmy.

1 3/4" Inside Diameter. Sold as a Pair

Tech Note: Special compound reduces squeaking but we highly recommend the use of Polyurethane Bushing Grease for added longevity and silent operation.
