Key Features
- Since these bushings are made out of polyurethane, they provide more stability for a vehicle's radiator than normal factory-installed parts.
- This doesn't even include the cost to repair the damage to the neighboring parts if the radiator if it is loose or engine damage if it overheats.
- These bushings are made out of polyurethane, a material that is resilient to vibrations, heat, and overall strain.
- The 71717 Prothane Suspension Radiator Isolator Bushings provide a better grip for the 1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette's radiator and can help prevent potential problems before they happen.
- The radiator is needed to help regulate the temperature of the engine especially if you are driving this corvette at high speeds, increasing the heat of the engine.
- If you are still using the factory made bushings for your 1997-2004 Chevy Corvette, it is high time you replace them.
