Part: Bushings

Replacing the silent block on your Kia? Lift the car with a jack and remove the damaged part. Loosen the wheel nuts with a telescopic spanner, then remove the wheel.

Remove the arm from its seat and separate the silent block. Always compare the parts to be replaced with the new ones; if they are suitable, you can fit them. Install the silent block into the arm, tighten all bolts to the specified torque. Refit the wheel after replacing the parts.
