Default Gs400 rear control arm bushings

Can bushings on rear control arms be changed? (upper & lower)

Where can I buy these? I want to avoid buying the whole arm which is $$$.

Does these aftermarket IS300 Rear upper control arms bolts right into GS400 without any modification? How is the quality on these?

ude have to do some researching yourself regarding quality. IS300 and 2GS rear upper control arms are the same dimensions in regards to linking up. Constructions of material (OEM) are different though.

Yeah, you might have to overnight it from Japan though. TRD does make bushings for these cars...but doesn't sell them in America. I'd figure all the front/rear TRD control arm bushings would cost a little bit under $500 before shipping (front strut mounts being most expensive at $150), which is still cheaper than buying the actual control arms in the dealership.
