Pontiac Fiero Control Arm Bushing
The Control Arm Bushing which is situated in Pontiac Fiero vehicles is an element of the suspension system whose role is to dampen any shock between the control arm mounted on the body of the car. This metal sleeve which is covered in insulating material allows smooth vertical adjustment of the control arms in relation to the road and as a response to other input from the steering mechanism while at the same time limiting lateral movement of the wheels. Many materials have been used by Pontiac Fiero in the production of Control Arm Bushing, some of which are rubber, steel, aluminum and polyurethane. Although rubber has been found to be cheap and quite popular its replacement with polyurethane and synthetic elastomers are more resilient and can perform better but at a little cost. Some options are made for stock level to achieve Pontiac Fiero factory type while others are made for rigorous application with variety of reinforced material.

Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
Pontiac Fiero Control Arm Bushing Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How do you remove and install the Control Arm Bushing and Control Arm on Pontiac Fiero?A: The pivot bolt bushings in the upper control arm are non-serviceable, so if they are worn or damaged, the upper control arm assembly must be replaced. To begin removal, loosen the wheel lug nuts without removing them, then raise the front of the vehicle and secure it on jackstands. Next, remove the tire and wheel assembly. Use a hammer and chisel to break off the rivet holding the brake hose clip to the upper control arm, and then remove the brake hose bracket from the frame rail. Support the lower control arm with a floor jack and disconnect the upper balljoint from the Steering Knuckle. Remove the upper control arm pivot bolt, noting the position of any spacers or washers for reinstallation. After removing the upper control arm, inspect the bushings for wear; if they are worn or damaged, replace the upper control arm. If the balljoint is not damaged or worn, transfer it to the new upper control arm. For installation, position the new upper control arm and install the pivot bolt assembly, ensuring the bolt head faces the front of the vehicle. Install the pivot bolt nut, use a back-up wrench on the bolt head, and tighten the nut to the specified torque. Attach the balljoint to the steering knuckle, then install the tire and wheel assembly, tightening the wheel lug nuts finger tight. Finally, lower the vehicle and tighten the wheel lug nuts to the specified torque.
