Prothane Strut Rod Bushings – 8/1987–1989 Nissan 300ZX (Z31) | Black Polyurethane
Restore and improve the front suspension precision of your 8/1987–1989 Nissan 300ZX with Prothane's Strut Rod Bushings in black polyurethane. The strut rod bushings control the fore-aft positioning of the front suspension strut rod — when the factory rubber bushings deteriorate, they allow excessive strut rod movement under braking and cornering, resulting in imprecise handling, increased brake dive, and a vague, disconnected front end feel. Prothane's polyurethane strut rod bushings replace the factory rubber with a firmer, more durable material that minimizes strut rod deflection for improved handling precision and a more controlled, confident front end response.
Key Features
- Polyurethane Construction: Firmer than factory rubber — reduces strut rod deflection under braking and cornering loads for improved handling precision and reduced brake dive
- Outlasts OEM Rubber: Polyurethane resists deterioration, cracking, and compression set significantly better than factory rubber bushings — long-term durability for street and track use on the Z31 platform
- Black Finish: Black polyurethane for a clean, understated appearance in the engine bay and undercarriage
- Direct Fit: Engineered specifically for the 8/1987–1989 Nissan 300ZX (Z31) strut rod bushing configuration — direct replacement for factory bushings
- Prothane Quality: Manufactured by Prothane — a trusted name in polyurethane suspension bushings for import and domestic performance vehicles

Note: Fitment is specific to 8/1987–1989 production Z31 300ZX — verify your build date before ordering. Polyurethane bushings may transmit slightly more NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) than factory rubber — a normal characteristic of polyurethane acceptable for performance street and track use. Grease bushings with supplied or compatible polyurethane-safe grease during installation. A front alignment is recommended after installation. Professional installation recommended.
