Restore A Solid Rear Suspension Feel To Your Aging Frontier
High mileage and heavy load carrying wear out the rubber bushings at the rear leaf spring's rear eye and shackle, leading to a wandering, disconnected feel over bumps and under load. The Whiteline W71647 replaces those worn bushings with Whiteline's signature black synthetic bushings, restoring a tight, controlled rear suspension feel on the Nissan Frontier D22.
Key Features
- Replaces the rear leaf spring rear eye and shackle bushings in one kit
- Outstanding abrasion resistance for high-mileage and heavy load use
- High load bearing capability suited to towing and daily hauling
- Resists oil, grease, ozone, and weathering better than factory rubber
- W71647 restores consistent rear axle control on worn leaf spring suspension
