Dorman 531-428 Suspension Control Arm Bushing - Rear Lower, Rear Upper or Rear Upper Forward
Dorman 531-428 Rear Control Arm Bushing
Dorman 531-428 is a suspension control arm bushing made for specific GM A-body and related rear suspension applications. Built from rubber with a black finish, it is precision-engineered and tested to replace the original equipment bushing on vehicles such as the Chevrolet El Camino, Pontiac GTO, and Oldsmobile Cutlass.
Key Features
- Rubber construction for OE-style suspension isolation
- Black finish for a factory-type appearance
- Designed as a direct replacement suspension control arm bushing
- Precision-engineered and rigorously tested for specific vehicle applications
- Mounting type: bushing
- Bracket not included
Detailed Description
This Dorman suspension control arm bushing, part number 531-428, is built for rear lower, rear upper, and rear upper forward positions across select 1964-1977 Buick, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac models. It is a practical OE-style replacement for worn rear suspension bushings on classic vehicles including the Buick Skylark, Chevrolet Malibu, Pontiac LeMans, and Pontiac Tempest. The rubber design helps restore the original suspension interface while maintaining the fit and function expected in factory-style rear control arm service.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 3182630) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Rear suspension looseness from deteriorated control arm bushings
- Clunking or knocking noises from worn bushing material
- Excessive rear axle movement under load
- Uneven suspension response caused by aged rubber components
- Restoration work on classic Buick, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac rear control arms
Installation Notes and Tips
Compatible With 1964-1977 Chevrolet El Camino, rear lower and rear upper; 1964-1977 Chevrolet Malibu, rear lower and rear upper; 1970-1977 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, rear lower and rear upper; 1964-1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass, rear lower and 1965-1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass, rear upper; 1964-1971 Pontiac GTO, rear lower and 1965-1971 Pontiac GTO, rear upper. Additional fitments include Buick Century, Regal, Skylark, LeSabre, Riviera, Oldsmobile 98, Delta 88, Starfire, Pontiac Bonneville, Grand Prix, Grand Am, LeMans, Tempest, and Cutlass Supreme.
Inspect the control arm, mounting points, and surrounding suspension components before installation. Press-fit bushing service typically requires proper support and alignment tools to avoid damaging the arm or the new bushing. Verify position carefully, especially on rear upper forward applications for 1964 Buick Skylark, Chevrolet El Camino, Chevrolet Malibu, Oldsmobile Cutlass, Pontiac GTO, Pontiac LeMans, and Pontiac Tempest.
Quality Assurance
