Rear Lower Control Arm Bushings
93 LS400
I've read all the threads about the problems related to the old bushings on these cars, and it seems like most people either buy OEM where they are available or use the ADUS replacements. I've been trying to find rubber replacement bushings rather than poly.
Has anyone tried these bushings?

They are filed under "upper control arm" but the descriptions calls it a rear lower control arm bushing. If it is in fact $20 for a pair than its a steal compared to any alternatives!

wow, thats bizarre, it worked yesterday. I found the part by searching for suspension bushings and this came up. It even gave me the big green checkmark for fitting a 93 ls400, wish i had taken a screenshot.
Weird.
Just tried the link again and now it says it fits the ls400. Don't know what to say about that. Screencap attached.

No, I am looking for upper control arm bushings specifically, but any rubber bushings for the suspension system would be fine. I want to replace all the bushings in the suspension with rubber, but I am having a hard time locating the rubber bushings for the LS400 suspension.
Also is it absolutely true that the ball joints in the upper control arm can not be replaced requiring you to replace the whole UCA if you need that ball joint replaced?
