Default Daizen bushings....

I recently ordered the Daizen complete front bushing set for the 1990 LS400. My car has the typical noise over big bumps like how some members have pointed out and I believe everyone agrees that the control arms might be the culprit.

Since Im getting new bushings do I still need to replace the control arms? Or will the new bushings from Daizen cure this?

hello, yes all you need is press out the old one and press in the new poly bushing, unlike gen2 ls for now its the whole a arm assembly, hopefully somebody will just sell just the bushing like the gen 1 ls

Well, looks like Daizen has the front bushing kit on backorder and TM engineering doesnt know
the ETA on when they will be available.. Hope the wait isnt too long.

hello, well if somebody out here can tell daizen to make the bushing for 2nd gen, then probably a group buy can be initiated so things can get rolling by the time we need those ,
