The SuperPro Rear Spring Shackle Upper Bushing Kit replaces the rear leaf spring shackle upper bushings on the 1972-1978 Mazda RX-3. The shackle lets the rear of the leaf spring move as the spring flexes, and its upper bushings are where the shackle meets the body. When they wear, the spring can move around under load and the rear can clunk or feel loose. It makes sense for anyone bringing back the original feel of a worn chassis, and for drivers who want a tighter, more responsive chassis for spirited driving. If you are unsure which location your car needs, compare the position in the product name with your suspension layout, or ask us before you order. Older vehicles in particular benefit, since factory bushings harden and crack with age even when mileage is low.

Plan the whole job

  • An alignment after installing new arms or bushings.
  • Matching parts at the other end. Upgrading one side or one link and leaving worn parts elsewhere limits the improvement.
  • Install tools. Pressed-in bushings may need a press or a shop to fit them.

Questions about Mazda RX-3 bushings

Will this fit my Mazda RX-3?
It is listed for the 1972-1978 Mazda RX-3. Check your year, model, drivetrain and chassis code against the product title. If anything is different, contact us and we will confirm fitment with the supplier before you order.
Do I need an alignment after installing this?
If the part changes or affects suspension geometry, yes. It is a good idea after any arm, link or bushing change.
Can I install it myself?
Many bolt-on parts can be installed at home with the right tools and a safe way to support the car. Pressed bushings and anything you are unsure about are best left to a shop.
Where do specs and warranty details come from?
