Default Is there an oem part# for these bushings?

My mechanic said these rear bushings are the only ones that are shot. Surprised me since our '94 has about 250K on it.

Thanks,

Thanks.

That would be my next option.

My thought was that those who have been through this before might have found an OEM part #.

Lexus wants to sell you the whole arm, not the bushing

yeah the rear spindle bushings aren't available as far as I know.

I believe the superpro SPF3015K are a better choice than Adus, in my experience.

I obtained this Adus bushing from Lexus dealer...

They presented as an option to a $350-400 spindle.

It is polyurethane composition so it is stiffer than OEM...

Am interested in the Superpro product line and whether non-urethane compound is used..

The adus 505 threw my rear alignment way out of wack according to my tire guys (which is totally normal when replacing worn bushings). Make sure you get an alignment done fairly soon.

made a positive difference in ride quality for me - my old bushings were completely disintegrated.

I have 2009 RX350 AWD ... do you think the size of "rear knuckle bushing" the same as AWD(all wheel) and FWD(forward)? I bought bushing posted this post, but it is a bit smaller to AWD.

you bought a bushing meant for the LS400 to use on your RX350? perhaps you posted on the wrong thread (which happens with the "related thread" being directly below your intended thread).
