Superpro Polyurethane Bushings for Improved Handling

What This Brand Covers

SuperPro is an Australian-engineered polyurethane suspension brand built on the philosophy that replacement bushings should be designed from the ground up rather than copied from OEM rubber geometry. Every SuperPro product goes through an in-house research and development process aimed at improving road holding, handling response, and tire wear characteristics compared to both factory rubber and generic polyurethane replacements.

Design-Engineered Bushings

Rather than simply reproducing the OEM rubber bushing shape in polyurethane, SuperPro re-engineers bushing geometry and durometer to target specific handling outcomes, which is why SuperPro components often use a different shape or hardness than the factory part they replace.

Passenger Car and 4x4 Coverage

SuperPro covers both passenger car applications, where the focus is sharper handling and reduced deflection under daily driving and spirited use, and 4x4 and truck applications, where the focus shifts to durability, articulation, and control under off-road loads.

Control Arm Bushings and Adjustable Control Arms

SuperPro produces both direct-fit polyurethane bushing kits for factory control arms and complete adjustable aftermarket control arms with spherical or polyurethane pivot bushings built in. Adjustable upper control arms are especially popular on the Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser, and Lexus GX platforms, where they correct camber and caster after a lift and improve wheel travel and steering geometry.

Front Control Arm Applications

Front upper and lower control arm bushing kits address the highest-wear suspension pivot points, tightening steering response and reducing camber change under load.

Rear Control Arm and Trailing Arm Applications

Rear upper and lower control arm and trailing arm bushing kits are common on independent rear suspension trucks and SUVs, and SuperPro's adjustable trailing arm kits are a popular upgrade for lifted 4Runner and FJ Cruiser builds needing corrected pinion angle.

Sway Bar and Differential Mount Bushings

Sway bar mount bushing kits reduce body roll by tightening the connection between the sway bar and the chassis, and are available in multiple durometer options for street and off-road use. Differential mount bushing kits, popular on the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Durango, and Chrysler 300, reduce driveline movement under acceleration and towing loads that can cause clunking and wheel hop with worn factory rubber mounts.

Panhard Rods and Off-Road Suspension Links

SuperPro produces adjustable panhard rods for platforms like the Jeep Gladiator JT, correcting axle centering after a lift and improving on-road tracking. These links are engineered with heavy-duty spherical or polyurethane joints to withstand off-road articulation loads that would quickly wear out a soft factory rubber bushing.

Camber-Adjustable and Heavy-Duty Kits

Camber-adjustable upper control arm bushing kits, popular on BMW X5 and X6 platforms, allow alignment correction beyond factory specification, useful after lowering or track alignment setups. Heavy-duty lower control arm kits use stiffer bushings and reinforced geometry for towing, overlanding, and high-load applications.

How to Choose the Correct SuperPro Kit

• Confirm the exact year, make, model, and trim of the vehicle
• Determine whether a direct bushing kit or a complete adjustable control arm best suits the build goal
• Check whether the application needs front, rear, or both control arm kits
• Confirm sway bar diameter before ordering sway bar mount bushings
• Verify differential mount type before ordering differential bushing kits
• Choose the correct panhard rod length and adjustability for lifted applications
• Confirm whether camber-adjustable arms are needed for lowered or aligned-to-track setups
• Check whether the kit includes new hardware or reuses factory bolts
• Confirm press tools or a shop press are available for press-fit bushings
• Plan for an alignment check after installing new control arms or bushings

Common Questions

What makes SuperPro different from other polyurethane bushing brands?

SuperPro engineers its bushings from scratch rather than copying the OEM rubber shape, targeting specific improvements in road holding, handling, and tire wear rather than just replacing worn rubber with a firmer material.

Do SuperPro adjustable control arms require an alignment shop with special knowledge?

Most SuperPro adjustable arms use conventional adjustment methods that any competent alignment shop can dial in, though some off-road applications benefit from a shop familiar with lifted vehicle alignment specs.

Will SuperPro bushings increase noise or vibration in the cabin?

Polyurethane transmits more road feel than soft rubber, but SuperPro tunes durometer by application to balance handling improvement with a manageable increase in NVH for street-driven vehicles.

Can SuperPro bushings handle off-road articulation loads?

Yes. SuperPro's 4x4 and truck-specific bushings and links are engineered for the higher loads and articulation angles seen in off-road use, unlike bushings designed only for on-road passenger cars.

Do I need to replace all four control arm bushings at once?

It is not required, but bushings on the same axle typically wear at a similar rate, so replacing them as a pair or full set is common practice to maintain even handling side to side.

What is a panhard rod and why would I need an adjustable one?

A panhard rod locates the axle side to side under the vehicle. Lifting a solid-axle vehicle shifts the axle off-center, and an adjustable panhard rod restores proper centering and on-road tracking.

Are SuperPro differential mount bushings a direct bolt-in replacement?

Yes. SuperPro differential mount bushing kits are engineered as direct replacements for the factory rubber mounts on supported applications like the Grand Cherokee and Durango.

Do camber-adjustable control arms affect ride quality?

Camber-adjustable arms themselves do not significantly change ride quality, but the polyurethane or spherical bushings used in them can slightly increase road feel compared to factory rubber-bushed arms.

How long do SuperPro bushings typically last?

SuperPro polyurethane bushings typically outlast factory rubber several times over since they resist the heat, oil, and ozone degradation that causes rubber to crack and soften.

Do SuperPro kits include installation hardware?

Most SuperPro bushing and control arm kits include the necessary sleeves, washers, and lubricant, though some applications may require reuse of factory mounting hardware. Check the specific kit listing for included contents.
