I need to replace the bushing in my front control arm on my driver side due to a rattling noise. I can easily find a whiteline or works replacement for one of the bushing. But the bushing that the Perrin psrs replaces I can't find just a poly version. After some more investigation. The only company that I can find that is offering both bushings I am looking for is Prothane. It is listing the same kit (13-204) for all Lancer Evo from 03-13 can anyone confirm whether that sounds right?

Here is a link to the part

Here is a link to the parts catolog saying that it fits for Evo 03-13. See Page 53.

Any help would be much appreciated.

 

I'm fairly certain the rear bushing diameter and height is the same in the 8/9/10 front lower control arms.

 

I'm really only concerned with the front bushings since that's what I need to replace. Looking at other parts more I'm really think it is correct. The Perrin PSRS is the same part number for EVO 8-10. And the whiteline bushing has the same part number (w0593) for evo 8-10 also. Just need a few others to chime in to see if they think this is correct also.

 

The PERRIN PSRS is the only recommended upgrade. Energy Suspension makes that bushing for the Evo 8 & 9, but there has been a lot of consensus that the stock version is much better than a polyurethane due the OEM being spherical inside. Robispec also mentioned this in an older MotoIQ article.

 

That is good to know but I honestly wasn't trying to upgrade but I might anyways since if I go that route I know everything will fit and I'm honestly tired of researching and wondering.

 

You should know that the PSRS is a full aluminum piece, and can transfer vibration. Just something to think about if the cars is a daily driver.

 

I'm looking into control arm bushings as well. Any reason why you didn't want the Whiteline or Works ones?

 

Yeah. From the reviews I have read it not really a noticeable difference so hopefully it'll be alright.
