Default Daizen - Control Arm Bushings for a 1999 Lexus GS

My idiot mechanic replaced my front control arms WITHOUT replacing the bushings with my Daizen bushings since he didn't have a press to insert the bushing. He put his grubby hands on them but never used themSo, I now have a set of:

Daizen - High Performance Control Arm Bushing Kit

(Polyurethane Control Arn Bushing Set - FRont)

P / N G2-2002
1998-1999 GS300/GS400 (JZS160/UZS160)

Package has been opened, all parts are new and unused.

$75 + Paypal shipped anywhere in the continental United States!!

This is a GREAT deal, here is some comparison pricing:

$99 plus shipping at TM Engineering

I just bought a set and my mechanic couldn't install them. I bought the Daizen control arm, Daizen steering column, and Daizen sway bar bushings. The only one I can't do myself was the control arm and my mechanic failed me on that one. I was hoping to buy some Daizen control arms but couldn't find any on the market.

Next time I'll pay more attention - no, I didn't buy your set. I bought them from Daryll at Sewell Lexus

Great people

Yep, and I just had them installed. It feels so much better than my friend wanted a set too so I'm getting this for him.

if you take apart your front suspension yourself, it's only about $10 a bushing (including press-ins). Took me about 4 hours to get my front suspension disassembled.
