blake918 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 ehh, i don't really give them much credit as they have a history of not holding up on their dates.So true. I think I remember them having a release date for Gen2 bushings back in 2005 or 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I paid $45/each from Sewell. I have free access to a press, so I don't know what a machine shop would charge for this. I saved a good bit of money going this route verses buying the whole arm (for $115).If you want Poly, they are out there; I see them on ebay all the time.

More info: http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...c=17449&hl= appreciate that! B) i have access to a press as well, i may just go that route with OEM. if PureDrifter says the Poly's are a hard ride, i might as well stay away from that. my current bushings look so worn out, almost as if the resilliancy is totally gone out of them.

Marklouis Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Now if they had strut rod bushings for my GS.Prices would help also. so your GS currently has the Original Bushings? do you feel slop at high speeds?? ive used Poly bushings in my old Acura Vigor, and it really stiiffened it right up. corners were a blast to take!
