Give Your S2000 Rear End the Grip It Deserves
The factory rubber bushings in the S2000 rear lower control arm break down quickly under hard cornering and track use, letting the rear axle shift under load and costing you predictable handling. The Whiteline W63442 rear control arm lower inner rear bushing kit swaps in a high density polyurethane formulation that holds its shape far longer than rubber, keeping the rear suspension geometry locked in through every corner.
Key Features
- High density polyurethane resists compression set and deflection found in factory rubber bushings
- Improves rear suspension precision under hard cornering, braking, and track driving
- Reduces unwanted rear axle movement for more consistent, predictable handling
- Direct replacement for the factory lower control arm inner rear bushing position
- Backed by Whiteline's limited lifetime warranty against defects
- Whiteline part number W63442 for simple reordering and warranty tracking
The W63442 kit is engineered specifically for the S2000 rear suspension layout, so fitment and load ratings match the factory geometry exactly.

FAQ
What is the W63442?The Whiteline W63442 is a polyurethane rear control arm lower inner rear bushing kit for the Honda S2000 that replaces the factory rubber bushings for tighter, more consistent rear suspension geometry.

What comes in the kit?The kit includes 4 polyurethane bushings and 2 steel tubes sized for the rear lower control arm inner rear mounting position.
Does this kit replace the entire control arm?No, this kit replaces only the bushings and tubes inside the factory lower control arm, so the factory arm is reused.
