SuperPro Front Control Arm Lower Rear Bushing Kit

Double Offset Rear Control Arm Lower Bushing Kit for the 2008 Through 2014 Honda Jazz and Jazz Hybrid

The SuperPro SPF4261K is a double offset rear control arm lower bushing kit engineered for the 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 Honda Jazz, including the 1.3i, 1.3 Hybrid GP1, and 1.5 i-VTEC GE8 variants. The SPF4261K kit uses SuperPro’s double offset bushing geometry to deliver positive caster adjustment to the rear lower control arm mounting position, improving directional stability, sharpening steering return-to-center feel, and reducing the tendency toward understeer that OEM rubber bushings allow to develop over time. The kit contains two precision-molded polyurethane bushings manufactured to SuperPro’s engineering-grade compound specification, which resists degradation from heat, road oils, brake fluid, and environmental weathering that causes OEM rubber to crack and deform over a typical service life. Unlike OEM rubber bushings, the SPF4261K polyurethane compound maintains consistent geometry correction throughout the life of the bushing, delivering a lasting improvement in chassis behavior rather than a temporary fix. SuperPro backs the SPF4261K with a lifetime warranty and draws on over 40 years of suspension development experience in Australia’s demanding road and track environments.

Key Features

• Double Offset Caster Correction: The SPF4261K double offset design adds positive caster to both sides of the rear lower control arm for improved directional stability and steering return-to-center response on the Honda Jazz GE platform.
• SuperPro Engineering-Grade Polyurethane: Resists degradation from heat, road oils, water, and brake fluid that accelerates the breakdown of factory rubber bushings over time.
• Non-Tire-Wearing Geometry Change: Caster adjustment through double offset bushings does not cause adverse camber or toe changes that would accelerate tire wear.
• Lifetime Warranty: SuperPro backs the SPF4261K bushing kit with a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
• Grease Included: Kit includes SuperPro polyurethane grease for correct installation of the bushing compound to metal contact surfaces.

What’s Included

• 2 x SuperPro SPF4261K Double Offset Rear Control Arm Lower Polyurethane Bushings
• SuperPro polyurethane installation grease

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does the double offset design in the SPF4261K actually do to my Honda Jazz?
   The double offset bushing geometry shifts the control arm mounting point to add positive caster to both sides of the rear suspension simultaneously. This sharpens the steering return-to-center response, improves straight-line tracking stability, and reduces understeer tendencies that develop as OEM rubber bushings deflect under cornering loads.
2. Do I need a press to install the SPF4261K in the Honda Jazz?
   The old OEM rubber bushings require a hydraulic press to remove them from the arm housing. The SuperPro SPF4261K polyurethane bushings can typically be installed by hand or with light mallet assistance using the grease included in the kit.
3. Will a wheel alignment be required after installing the SPF4261K?
   Yes. A double offset design like the SPF4261K requires a professional four-wheel alignment after installation to confirm the caster correction is set correctly and that toe and camber remain within specification for even tire wear.
4. Does the SPF4261K fit the Honda Fit sold in North America?
   The Honda Jazz GE platform is sold as the Honda Fit in North America. If your North American Fit uses the GE8 platform (2009 through 2014 Fit), the SPF4261K may be fitment compatible. Verify your platform code and control arm bushing outer diameter before ordering.
5. How long will the SPF4261K last compared to OEM rubber bushings?
   SuperPro polyurethane compound is engineered to outlast OEM rubber bushings significantly in real-world road conditions. SuperPro backs the SPF4261K with a lifetime warranty reflecting this durability standard.
6. Is the SPF4261K compatible with a stock-height Honda Jazz or only for lowered setups?
   The SPF4261K is designed for use on Honda Jazz vehicles at any ride height, including stock. The double offset caster correction is geometry-based and is not dependent on suspension height changes.
7. Does the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act protect me if I install the SPF4261K?
   Yes. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, installing aftermarket suspension components like the SuperPro SPF4261K cannot void your vehicle factory warranty unless the dealer can demonstrate that the part directly caused a specific failure.
8. What grease should I use with the SPF4261K during installation?
   Use only the SuperPro polyurethane-specific grease included in the SPF4261K kit. Standard petroleum-based greases can attack polyurethane compound over time.

Install Instructions

Safely lift and support the Honda Jazz on jack stands with full access to the rear suspension. Identify the rear lower control arm and locate the mounting bolt at the subframe end where the SPF4261K bushings are located. Remove the rear lower control arm mounting bolt and lower the arm to relieve tension. Take the control arm to a shop press. Press the old OEM rubber bushing out of the control arm housing using an appropriate press adapter. Clean the bushing housing thoroughly before installing the new SPF4261K polyurethane bushing. Apply the included SuperPro polyurethane grease to all contact surfaces on the bushing and the housing bore. Press or hand-seat the SPF4261K bushing into the housing with the double offset orientation aligned per the SuperPro installation diagram included in the kit. Reinstall the control arm onto the subframe, torquing the mounting bolt to factory specification with the suspension at ride height. Repeat for the opposite side. Have a professional four-wheel alignment performed before returning the vehicle to normal use.
