This is the factory-correct Cognito replacement polyurethane bushing kit for those arms: 8 bushings and 4 crush sleeves covering both UCAs, sourced directly from Cognito, correct durometer and bore geometry. If your Cognito UCAs use press-in polyurethane bushings at the frame pivot (no grease fittings), this is the kit. If your arms have grease fittings at the pivot, see SKU 199-91161 instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eConcierge Fitment Guarantee\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery order is manually reviewed by our technicians to ensure 100% compatibility with your build before we ship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eEngineering Breakdown\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRestores\u003c\/strong\u003e the polyurethane press-in pivot bushing interface on Cognito Upper Control Arms to factory-correct specification — replacing worn, cracked, or collapsed bushings that introduce UCA slop, steering wander, front-end clunking, and accelerated ball joint wear on high-mileage GM 1500, HD, and Hummer H2 applications running Cognito UCAs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEliminates\u003c\/strong\u003e the pivot bushing deflection that degrades the corrected ball joint angle and droop travel geometry that Cognito UCAs are engineered to maintain — restoring precise pivot behavior at the frame mount and returning the UCA to its designed performance envelope for lifted and leveled applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDelivers\u003c\/strong\u003e a complete two-arm service kit — 8 polyurethane bushings and 4 crush sleeves — sourced directly from Cognito with correct durometer, bore diameter, and crush sleeve dimensions for the press-in pivot design used across the GM 1500, HD, and H2 UCA product lines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit covers both upper control arms (driver and passenger) with 8 bushings and 4 crush sleeves. The polyurethane bushing material provides a firmer pivot interface than OEM rubber bushings, maintaining the precise pivot geometry that Cognito UCAs require at elevated ride heights. This kit is compatible exclusively with Cognito UCAs that use press-in polyurethane bushings at the frame pivot — identifiable by the absence of grease fittings (zerks) at the UCA frame mount. If your Cognito UCAs have grease fittings at the pivot, order SKU 199-91161 (greaseable pivot bushing kit) instead. If you are unsure which bushing design your Cognito UCAs use, contact the OFAS team with your UCA part number before ordering. At 1.7 lbs, this kit ships standard parcel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAudit Table\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePart Number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterials\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eIncluded Components\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e199-91162\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolyurethane Press-In Pivot Bushing Kit — Cognito UCAs; GM 1500 1999–2020 \/ GM HD 2001–2010 \/ Hummer H2 2003–2009; 2WD\/4WD Trucks \u0026amp; SUVs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolyurethane; correct durometer and bore diameter for Cognito press-in UCA pivot design\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1.7 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(8) polyurethane pivot bushings; (4) crush sleeves — covers 2 upper control arms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eVerified Fitment (OFAS Standard)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e✅ \u003cstrong\u003eCONFIRMED — Chevrolet Silverado 1500 \/ GMC Sierra 1500 (1999–2018):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1999–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 \/ GMC Sierra 1500 — all trims 2WD\/4WD\u003cbr\u003e2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Classic \/ GMC Sierra 1500 Classic — all trims\u003cbr\u003e2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LD (WT, LT, Custom)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e✅ \u003cstrong\u003eCONFIRMED — Chevrolet\/GMC Full-Size SUVs (2000–2020):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2000–2020 Chevrolet Tahoe \/ GMC Yukon — all trims 2WD\/4WD\u003cbr\u003e2000–2020 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 \/ GMC Yukon XL 1500 — all trims 2WD\/4WD\u003cbr\u003e2001–2013 Chevrolet Suburban 2500 \/ GMC Yukon XL 2500 — all trims 2WD\/4WD\u003cbr\u003e2015–2020 GMC Yukon XL (SLE, SLT, Denali) 2WD\/4WD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e✅ \u003cstrong\u003eCONFIRMED — GM HD Trucks (2001–2010):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2001–2010 Chevrolet Silverado \/ GMC Sierra 1500HD, 2500, 2500HD, 3500, 3500HD 2WD\/4WD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e✅ \u003cstrong\u003eCONFIRMED — Hummer H2 \/ H2 SUT (2003–2009):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2003–2009 Hummer H2 SUV and H2 SUT — all trims\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e❌ \u003cstrong\u003eREQUIREMENTS \u0026amp; CRITICAL NOTICES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e⚠️ COGNITO UCA PRESS-IN POLYURETHANE DESIGN ONLY:\u003c\/strong\u003e This kit fits only Cognito UCAs with press-in polyurethane bushings at the frame pivot (no grease fittings).
