Alpine A290 & Renault 5 E-Tech Front Lower Control Arm Bush – Front or Rear
This rubber and metal bush fits the lower control arm on the front axle of the Alpine A290 and the Renault 5 E-Tech, both built from 2024. Choose the front bush (Febi 177597) or the rear bush (Febi 177596). Each one fits the left or the right arm.
The bushes hold the control arm to the subframe and soak up road shocks. Replace them if the rubber is cracked or soft, or if you hear clonks from the front when braking or over bumps.
The front bush, Febi 177597, replaces Renault 54 56 046 83R and measures 55 mm outside, 18 mm inside and 51 mm high. The rear bush, Febi 177596, replaces Renault 54 56 066 79R and measures 58 mm outside, 14.4 mm inside and 53 mm high. Both are sold singly.
