AndyLowe Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 When braking, I have a rythmic noise and have found the driver's rear wheel has play, when off the ground and grabbed from the 9 and 3 oclock position. Closer inspection has shown the rubber bushing that is pressed into the Wheel Hub Bearing Carrier is the cause of the mechanical play. Do you know where I can purchase a bushing for this? Thanks, Andy
AndyLowe Posted October 20, 2010 Author Posted October 20, 2010 I found this website and their Bushings look like what I'm trying to find. http://www.redlinemotive.com/store/replacement/wizard.asp?year=1994&make=LX&model=LS-400-001&category=L∂=Trailing+Arm+Bushing The alternative is to perform a great deal of labor and expense, to replace the Knuckle; the cast iron part that contains the two rubber bushings down low. Lexus offers the Knuckle for about $300 with shipping, and that's too much money for a worn bushing if I can avoid it.
RDM Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 The Adus bushings are your best bet, there's several retailers who sell them.
AndyLowe Posted October 21, 2010 Author Posted October 21, 2010 The Adus bushings are your best bet, there's several retailers who sell them. Thank You! I had not heard of them, and a search for LS400 Adus on Ebay brought some sources up. Andy
AndyLowe Posted October 22, 2010 Author Posted October 22, 2010 www.mybushings.com Here's a very helpful link, from an Aussie who replaced his bushing with an ADUS 583 Kit. Thanks! http://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls400/236651-rear-knuckle-bushings-source-pic-attached.html
