Description
What are knuckle bushings?
Knuckle bushings are critical suspension arm bushings that connect the steering knuckle to the control arm, ensuring precise wheel articulation.
Are these bushings a direct bolt-on replacement?
Professional installation is recommended for these performance-oriented suspension arm bushings due to their specialized design and adjustment.
SPL Parts Knuckle Bushings for your 2016-2025 Fiat 124 Spider or Mazda MX-5 Miata deliver a 9/10 track performance score by eliminating artificial spring rate. Their full spherical solution ensures smooth articulating deflection and compliance, providing a truly connected driving experience for ultimate control and immediate feedback.
What Owners Say
Owners and enthusiasts consistently praise SPL Parts for exceptional build quality and long-term durability, with one driver reporting 80,000 miles without noise or issues. The knuckle bushings specifically deliver massively improved compression response and road feel, though buyers note the trade-off: a minor but noticeable increase in NVH compared to OEM rubber. The most frequent criticism centers on price—at $589.50, some question the value when OEM bushings cost a fraction of that amount. Still, those who've installed SPL components emphasize the "very high quality" construction and performance gains. For enthusiasts prioritizing precise handling and steering feedback over comfort and cost savings, these bushings have earned a solid reputation.
