Hard race or Figs caster bushing?
My caster arm bushings are shot and im looking to replace them. I know most people go with Figs poly bushing or the roca rubber oem replacement. Has anyone used the HardRace bushing? Its a company out of Australia that uses hardened rubber. Here is a link to the product:

Well... considering both FIGS and ROCA are local to the States and HardRace is in Australia, I'd venture to say that most people stick the US-based companies. The shipping time and cost would probably be another factor. I've heard of the company before, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't Lexus-related.

Good luck with the install, man.
From what I've heard NEW Castor bushings really change/firm up our cars "slop" after 100k miles... even OEM ones.

Hey bro- please let me know what you think of the Figs caster bushings- I'm not ready to replace this WEEK- but by the end of the year I probably will... I'm considering the Figs, also.
Good luck with the install, man.

That's conclusion I came to as well. Figs is the way to go.

If you don't mind a bit more road feel and the higher cost - get figs. If you want lower cost and don't mind changing again in a few years - go with the ROCA - I seriously doubt that the ROCA will have less life than OEM, which wasn't great but still…
My OEM arms were replaced with the updated ones about 2-3 years ago and I can now feel they are starting to get sloppy - I think I'll install the ROCA bushings I have and see.
