Need help. finding bushing
Hey, I just tried to get my car aligned 2002 is300 and the shop said they wouldn't do it because of my Front lower radius arm bushings were both bad in the front.
Couple questions
First was do I need to replace these bushings to get an alignment?
Second why are they trying to charge me for the entire arm when the bushing is all I need? My father told me his 20 year old supra he can find bushings for why can't this car?
Thanks,
Steve

Try top speed assessories(topspeedauto.com) for your bushings! i'm about to order me a set since lexus wants to charge $250 for each arm! you can take them to a shop to have them pressed out the old and replace with the new one and make sure you greased them!

arm or bushing almost comes out to be the same price. to press out the bushings is like 3 hours in labor where the part is only a little bit,however, the part of a control arm is expensive but replace ment is like an hour and half.. im a manger of a shop so I think if you can find someone to give u a good deal on the arms you might come out on top.
