Trail Forged HD front axle bushing upgrade kit.
Front upper control arm bushings (axle side) for most Jeep models (XJ, MJ, YJ, ZJ, TJ, LJ, WJ, JK) with factory Dana 30 or 44 axles. These are a precision made, top quality factory style rubber bushing with some major upgrades:
- Genuine Clevite
- 1/2″ bolt hole is the largest size of any factory style rubber bushing ¹
- Premium quality elastomer for superior durability and ride comfort
- Includes 1/2″ Grade 8 fine thread mounting hardware for a serious upgrade in strength
Notes:
- Requires drilling out upper control arms to 1/2″ on all Jeep models except some JK’s (JK uses a 12mm bolt factory, which is about 0.027″ smaller than 1/2″)
- We get 2 very slight variations of bushings shipped to us, out of the same factory, of the same quality. We will always send you a matched set, but be aware some have the “rolled” style center sleeve, and some the solid. Be assured, though, they are both of the same exact quality, it is merely a visual difference!

Great bushings not real easy to put in but that’s just the nature of the beast

Great bushings I hope they hold up as good as I think they will

Beefy bushings for my not so Beefy WJ.
Learned my lesson, Don’t skimp out on measly stamped steel Control arms when you upgrade to these bushings. I did and now pay price of upgrading my upper arms as the bushings on the other end just failed miserably.

I’m using this bushing to located my entire axle in a 3-link setup so it needs to be strong. I had a flex joint in there before but didn’t like how much vibration came through the link. This rubber one feels much better in daily driving and is holding up well so far.
