Default 2nd gen Daizen bushings

I just noticed on the daizen site,

http://www.daizensporttuning.com/pro..._bushings.html

they now make front and rear control arm bushings for 2nd generation LS400

Anyone have any reviews on this product?

What about sway bar bushings as well?

Thanks.

Sewell Lexus (Dallas Daizen dealer) advised they were not available yet for 2nd gen. I emailed Daizen directly today and will let you know if I hear otherwise.

They are a huge improvement for the UCF-10 pre-95 cars.

I installed them myself & it is easily the best money I have ever spent in terms of improvement per $. Also let me know that other suspension bushing parts were not in as bad a shape as I had thought. At 184,000 plus I still have original UCA's for example.

All the guy said was they were not available yet.......there are L-tuned (Armstrong) bushings on the net (Carson Toyota). At least these are avialable.

Sorry I don't. I have ordered other parts most recently the Tom's strut tower brace. I called Carson Toyota (L-Tuned) and they said they were made by Armstrong. They are urethane and last much longer and are more performance oriented that stock rubber. Here's their web site:
http://www.l-tunedparts.com/index.php
I'll look around and post any other details.
