This is how my bushing both look like now. The ride is rough and terrible. Any suggestions ask to replace the whole arm or where to find the right bushing without customizing the repairs?

I used these, except my pat serial no was called adus 64? from another company. The front subframe will need to be loosened up. I purchased anothe set of the lower arms from the junk yard and pressed in the solid pooyurethane bushings.
Long story...the driver side bolt was seized and the tech had to cut through my stock control arm(aka radius arm) on the car. Thank goodness I pressed the bushings into a spare set.
If you can, try and buy a new lower control arm #2. And if you can afford it, I would buy the FIGS engineering set. I know he was working on a bushing kit that is supposedly better rhan your standard polyurethane bushing.

Roca RC-666024
I have a 94 Lexus gs300. So I needed to get the lower control arm bushings replaced. I found some on ebay...only to find out the bushing does fit but the hole for the camber adjustment bolt won't fit.

So to sum things up the Roca bushings RC-666024 DOES NOT FIT the 93 GS , and this thread kept a bad day from turning into a really bad day.
