get the ones from www.l-tunedparts.com

they are also polyurethane and will most likely receive them a lot quicker than if you were to order from tm.

I got mine from TM in 3 days... CA to FL. Also, the ones that l-tunedparts sells have the plastic sleeves instead of metal like the daizens.

So does the kit from TM Engineering come with ALL bushings or just the ones for the driver side? I'm only having a problem with the passenger side bushing and I'm gonna replace them all anyhow but I want to make sure I at least get the one I really need. I'm almost embarrassed to admit that it's completely disintegrated.

2yr old thread but yes tm engineering has all three bushings..and dont be embarrassed..if you look at the install thread the most recent pics are mine and there was NOTHING left on my driver side bushings..just the metal inserts..

also be cautious with TM engineering..you may not get your bushings anytime soon it took me a little over a month to get them in..they did come and work wonderfully but it took longer then i would of liked..also other people are complaining about this in a thread in this same section..

Thanks for the info. I'm gonna go ahead and order them from TM but in the meantime I was able to jerry-rig the passenger side bushing using a 2" rubber pipe coupling from the plumbing section at Lowe's. A little trimming and it fit like a glove. It's not a permanent fix but it's keeping things from slamming around until I can get the real thing. Just a thought for anyone who doesn't want to ruin their rack and/or tires while they're waiting for parts.

TM is terrible, very unprofessional and they don't even have a number to call for help.

I was able to get a bushing kit from http://www.frsport.com/ at a good price,

Thankfully I used paypal and got my money back over a month later.
They don't answer their phone, don't answer their e-mail, didn't send any sort of shipping confirmation or order confirmation, and as far as I could tell never shipped my order. Just assume there is nobody home and you're throwing your money into a bottomless pit if you order from their website.
