Parts for your 1995 Mitsubishi Pajero-Suspension bushes

1995 Mitsubishi Pajero Suspension Bushes

Suspension bushes are absolutely used on the 1995 Mitsubishi Pajero (Gen 2 NH/NJ/NK). Factory documentation lists rubber bushes at the front upper and lower control arms, front and rear anti-roll (sway) bars and links, rear trailing arms and panhard rod, plus body/subframe mounts. This is confirmed across the Mitsubishi Pajero NH/NJ/NK Workshop Manual, the Mitsubishi ASA electronic parts catalogue, and broadly covered in the Haynes Pajero/Montero/Shogun 1983–2000 repair manual.

On this Pajero, the bushes isolate vibration, keep things quiet inside the cabin, and allow controlled movement of arms and links so the wheels track straight and true. They help maintain alignment under braking and cornering, protect metal mounts from shock, and contribute to that planted, predictable feel both on-road and on corrugated tracks. When bushes age, harden or split, the result can be clunks, vague steering, uneven tyre wear and a harsher ride.

Owners typically see the best results by inspecting bushes at regular service intervals, especially if the vehicle tows, carries loads or sees beach or outback work. A practical cadence is a visual and lever-check every 20,000–40,000 km, or annually, looking for cracks, perishing, torn sleeves, or excessive arm movement. Any oil contamination from a weeping shock or engine leak will accelerate rubber degradation and should be addressed promptly.

• Common wear points: front lower control arm bushes, sway-bar D-bushes and link bushes, rear trailing arm and panhard rod bushes.
• Tell-tales: steering wander, braking shimmy, “thunk” over speed humps, rapid inside-edge tyre wear, and harsh NVH on corrugations.

When replacing, tightening pivot bolts with the suspension at normal ride height matters
