Product Description

The Pedders PED-EP1169 Rear Crossmember Bushing Insert Kit is engineered for the rear suspension of select high-performance GM RWD models. Specifically tailored for the 2008-2009 Pontiac G8 and 2014-2017 Chevrolet SS, this kit improves subframe mounting stiffness and reduces rear axle movement under load - ideal for drivers upgrading traction, handling or suspension components.

By replacing original rubber bushings with precisely tooled polyurethane inserts, this kit maintains the factory mounting locations while giving performance-grade durability and responsiveness. The result is a tighter rear end feel, less subframe flex, and improved handling feedback - without altering ride height or requiring major modifications.

Installation is straightforward for any qualified technician: simply remove the rear crossmember mounts, press in the inserts, torque to factory specs and perform an alignment check upon completion. Fitment is confirmed for the G8 and SS models listed above; coverage beyond those years or other models remains unconfirmed at this time.
