I've got Stance coilovers on my 2001 GS430 and lately been hearing some squeaking harsh noises. Turns out my bushings on the coilovers are shot. One of them is done and the others are most likely getting there. I've put about 20k miles on them so it is expected and I am lowered so that doesn't help any.

I've contacted a vendor for Stance to replace 4 bushings and the price estimate was around $250 (yikes). Has anyone had this problem or purchased other bushings that will work?

Here are pictures of what I am talking about.

Thanks in advance!

looks nasty. but 250 for 4 sounds about right.

damn your **** looks so busted haha, i think your supposed to change the lower brackets every 15-10k miles or so, you need to change the whole bracket because they dont sell rubber bushing by themselves, unless you call FIGS and get the spherical bushings that hes desgined, and yea its gonna cost 250+ to replace all 4 but its worth it

do the lower brackets just screw off? it says do not assemble lol. i've never taken apart coilovers before. A vendor from stance can get just the coilovers for the price I mentioned, I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and what they've done.

yes they come off very easily, you just need to twist em off and thats it

also rememeber to not screw the front brackets into the rears, there is a small difference the first set of stance coils that ive owned and had to replace, i screwed them on the wrong sides causing the suspension to make a nasty squeaky noise while driving

sakataj: thanks for the info, the link to the facebook page isn't working. i contacted them prior to making this thread and they got back to me not long ago. they don't have anything pre-made for this so i'd be sending the lower mounts in to them for a custom order.

chObert: thanks for all the info and help!

just PM FIGS, he has these already made in a spherical bushing so you dont have to worry about it anymore
