Default FS: Daizen bushing kit and caster arms.

So this is what I got.

The whole daizen polyurethane bushings kit. Its brand new, never opened.

Two used caster arms. They still have the factory bushings inside them, that are busted.

As our cars age, these bushings get torn and deformed, and your tires wobble, shake and wear out unevenly. New arms cost about $400-500, with factory bushings, and Lexus does not sell bushings separately. However you can replace them with the Daizen bushings, which will never get torn or deformed and generally stiffen up your suspension and give you better steering feel.

It is quite a process to replace these bushings, and this is why you want to have a set of extra arms, so there's no downtime for your car and you can take your time and install these bushings.

I'm looking for $150 for the whole thing. I much prefer local pickup, but shipping isn't a problem either.

Daizen bushings are different between a 98-00 and 01-05.

the 01-05 arms can be used on 98-00 without any issues right? of course just as long as 01-05 bushings are used. if this is so, then consider them sold. i'm local and can pick up. pm to arrange a time/place

No idea. The bushings and the arms are for 01-05, no clue whether or not they fit 98-00.

there are reasons 98-00 daizen bushing kit is sold separately from the 01-05 daizen bushing kit....there is a different sizing.

yes pete, but if using 01-05 caster arm with 01-05 bushings on a 98-00 there would be no problem, its considered an upgrade. the later arms are slightly beefier thus requiring bigger bushings

oh yes, if you swapped out to 01-05 arms...then you will need the 01-05 daizen bushings.
