Default Rear Bushing Changed! Finally.

I have 1995 SC300, Finally, I have my Rear Bushing replaced! All I can say is not bad at all, once you did it. Mine was really bad because of the noise, I have been riding for 2 years (with the noise from the rear) and replace 4 tires for the rear within 2 years. If you ever change or let some one change the bushing, please don't let them remove the ABS Sensor, I removed the first one and it broke. Remove the wire harness from trunk " next to the gas tank" is the best solution. The ABS sensor will cost $200 dollars, I am still looking for a used. If you have the problem with the rear bushing, replace it as soon as possible, this will cause the Bearing and hub problem. I have actually replace the driver side bearing and HUB ( $184.60 for the Hub from Dealer and $79 dollars from autozone), replace your bushing before it cause this problem. (May be I am wrong for this). Don't know anything about control, soft or hard. May be I will get my front bushing done and tell you guy what is the different. All I know now is the rear bushing noise gone! I am grad my friend did the pressing for all the bushing for $100, it is really decend price for 12 bushing. Of course I got the bushing for less than $300 (front and rear) Will get the front replace next week.

Dont you just love the 1995 SC's? At 92k on the odometer, ive already had to replace the rear upper bushings and the driver side wheel bearing.

Glad everything worked out for you.
