PROTHANE™ was founded in 1991 when it acquired a little known manufacturer by the name of BC Engineering. At the time, BC offered less than 100 part numbers, mostly for trucks. But it's special formulations, precise engineering methods and attention to customer's needs caught our eye. Well, the rest as they say is history and we now offer the most extensive line of urethane based performance products for cars and trucks on the planet. Whether it's an Asian or European import or any popular American car or truck, PROTHANE™ has products for it.
Production vehicles are built using rubber bushings in control arms, strut arms, leaf springs, body mounts, motor mounts, transmission mounts, sway bars and shocks. Additionally, rubber components can be found being used on coil spring pads, leaf spring pads and suspension bump stops. Not only are rubber components on the soft side to accommodate the typical car and truck buyer, they to deteriorate rapidly. This contributes to premature component failure, a "spongy" ride and less than ideal performance handling. Urethane can correct these conditions, while improving drivability.
