Default 90-94 LS400 Front Control Arm Bushings Available

Should have the Daizen front control arm bushing sets in by next week for the 90-94 LS400.

This set will be $99.95 and will have the bushings for the front upper and lower control arms. It will not service the strut rod bushing.

They will go pretty fast, so please PM if you are interested in ordering them!

Ohhhh...any idea when you might be getting the rears? I would definitely be interested in getting the fronts with the rears.

Pics would be nice...

Also, what issues are corrected when you replace this? Does this correct the bearing sound in the driver-side axles? Thx

Couple of pics. I will only be able to install then in 1.5 month since my car is in the shop getting some performance work done.

Hi everyone,
I'm in BC, Canada and I wonder how I can order Daizen control arm bushings. My local Lexus dealer told me that they only sold bushings for the lower control arms. The upper control arms are sold as one piece which includes the control arm, bushings and ball joint for USD 390/each for the front and USD 180/each for the rear.
Any information on how to order those bushings from Canada would be appreciated. Thanks.

Question .....

So has anyone actually installed these yet? I want to replace mine, but I want to hear people's impressions of how they affect the ride and height.

Thanks

As far as height, there should be no difference, but i assume the ride is much much tighter, maybe to the point of it being uncomfortable. I think i might jsut change the rears

i'm only commenting on what i've heard... have you tried them? I assume you must have, since you are advertising the sale of a product
