Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Enhance Suspension Performance with MOOG K200907 Control Arm Bushing! by Mike Littlejohn

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fits 2003 Toyota Matrix base

Revain says it won't fit but this hub fits the Matrix and the quality seems better than the Moog wishbone. After 260,000 km the original driver's side bushing was dismantled, completely torn out, but the front hub was in good condition, so I only replaced the rear one. I couldn't get the left transmission mount out from under the air intake so I unscrewed the front and rear mounts (centre bolts) and the two cross member bolts raised the transmission as well. to remove the front control arm bolt. To press out the old bushing I rented a ball joint press kit but it didn't work so I knocked out the old one and used a press kit to press in the new one. I did this job in a parking lot with limited tools, it took hours and a lot of sweat and blood, but if you have a garage I think this job will be a lot easier. I hope I don't have to do this job again, especially on the driver's side.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak
