gumbytech Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 I would like to replace my OEM rubber bushings on the FSB with urethane. What are recommendations? When replacing FSB rubber, what else should be replaced besides the main bushings? Also, I have ordered a TRD RSB, will it come with bushings? Is there any rubber I should replace when installing the TRD RSB? Thanks, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKperformance Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Why do you want to replace them ? Whiteline makes replacment bushings. Unless it says it comes with new bushings it probably wont . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumbytech Posted February 21, 2005 Author Share Posted February 21, 2005 Why do you want to replace them ?Whiteline makes replacment bushings. Unless it says it comes with new bushings it probably wont . ← I just installed KYB struts and mounts. I have ordered Solara strut bar and TRD RSB. So I wanted to move to urethane on the bushings and stabilizer links. Reason: increased durability and better performance over OEM rubber. My existing bushing/links are OEM rubber that is 8 years old and 75K miles. I have looked at energysuspension and whiteline, but am confused on what parts will work. I also do not see urethane stabilizer links. Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKperformance Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 stablilizer bushings should be called end links i think I know they sell then as some people have them and had to get whitelines for the upgraded larger bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKperformance Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 They are the same damn shock but slightly stiffer as KYB makes the oem lexus shocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKperformance Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Mcpherson is a design style of springs loaded on the shocks not the manufacture . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
