Prothane 07-14 Chevy Silverado 2/4wd Upper/Lower Front Control Arm Bushings - Black - 7-243-BL

The Prothane 7-243-BL Upper/Lower Front Control Arm Bushing Kit is a direct-replacement polyurethane bushing set engineered specifically for the 2007–2014 Chevrolet Silverado in both 2WD and 4WD configurations. If your Silverado's front end has developed a vague, wandering feel, clunking over bumps, or uneven tire wear, worn rubber factory bushings are often the culprit — and this Prothane kit addresses both the upper and lower control arm positions in a single purchase. Available in black (part number 7-243-BL), this kit is a popular choice for Silverado owners who want to restore or improve front suspension precision without a full control arm replacement.

Key Features & Benefits

• Complete Upper & Lower Coverage: This single kit replaces the bushings at both the upper and lower front control arm positions, saving you the hassle and cost of sourcing two separate kits.
• Prothane Polyurethane Construction: Prothane is a well-established name in aftermarket polyurethane suspension components. Polyurethane bushings are generally firmer than OEM rubber, which helps reduce flex and slop in the suspension geometry — translating to more consistent steering response and handling feedback.
• Designed for 2WD & 4WD Silverados: The 7-243-BL is specifically designed to fit both two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive variants of the 2007–2014 Silverado platform, making it a versatile solution across the lineup.
• Black Finish: The black colorway (BL suffix) blends cleanly with underhood and suspension components. A red version (7-243) is also part of the Prothane lineup for those who prefer a more visible, performance-oriented appearance.
• Restoration & Performance Upgrade in One: Whether you're restoring a high-mileage work truck or dialing in a weekend tow rig, replacing fatigued OEM rubber with this polyurethane set is an upgrade that addresses both durability and handling precision.
• UPC Verified: UPC 636169206771 confirms this is the genuine Prothane 7-243-BL kit.

Fitment

This Prothane bushing kit is designed to fit the following vehicles:

• 2007–2014 Chevrolet Silverado — 2WD and 4WD

The Prothane manufacturer page also references fitment on the GMC Sierra 1500 & 2500 (2007–2012) 4WD under the related 7-243 family — however, the specific 7-243-BL listing as sold here is confirmed for the 2007–2014 Chevrolet Silverado 2/4WD application. If you drive a GMC Sierra or a Silverado outside the 2007–2014 range, please reach out to our team to verify compatibility before ordering. Fitment on HD (2500HD/3500HD) variants or other GM truck platforms has not been confirmed for this specific part number based on available data.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this kit cover both the upper AND lower control arm bushings?
A: Yes. The Prothane 7-243-BL is explicitly described as an Upper/Lower Front Control Arm Bushing kit, meaning it addresses both positions on the front suspension in one purchase.

Q: Will this fit my 4WD Silverado, or is it only for 2WD?
A: This kit is designed for both 2WD and 4WD Silverado configurations across the 2007–2014 model years. The product name and fitment data both confirm 2/4WD compatibility.

Q: Is there a color option other than black?
A: Yes. Prothane also offers this bushing set in red under part number 7-243 (without the BL suffix). The black version (7-243-BL) listed here is the same kit in a black colorway.

Q: I'm not sure if this fits my exact Silverado trim or cab configuration — how do I confirm?
A: The safest step is to contact our fitment specialists directly at 813-535-5801 or via the fitment help form on the product page. We can help verify compatibility with your specific year, trim, and drivetrain configuration before your order ships.
