Restoring rubber suspension parts

[vindex1963]

Is there a product that restores rubber auto suspension parts? My 1995 Grand Cherokee is showing it's age, the rubber in the suspension
is in good shape it's not falling apart it just looks dry. The Jeep has 76,000 miles. I know most products attack the rubber like WD-40 but is
there a proven product to help aid in reversing the dryness?

Nope. Replace the parts when worn out.

I like to spray bushings and things with silicone spray. If they are too worn out I’d replace them though. The silicone spray will help condition them up nicely.

Rubber parts decay mostly due to oxidization. There are conditioners that will help seal the outside, slowing down oxidization a little, but its really not slowing it down much. You just need to replace them when they fail.

It is too late to wait till they are oxidized and stressed.

What is "looks dry"? If you have noise, add some silicone grease. Otherwise it is a wear item and rubber was chosen to be more pliable for a softer ride but you can replace with polyurethane if you want it tighter, and squeakier if you don't relube as needed.

Ultimately the best you can do to prolong what you have is just clean them off and put some silicone on them but do you really need to do anything if the only symptom is "looks dry"?
