My mechanic sourced them but I found them cheaper on amazon.. I believe $140 a piece + shipping from the vendor DCH Lexus.
I believe there are 60mm and 65mm castor arm bushings depending on VIN production date, but i measured mine to be 60mm, 1998 gs300 and bought 2 bushings, air chissel'd old ones out, pressed in new ones
$30 for both bushings shipped to me: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Control-Arm-...tWkTua&vxp=mtr

I have seen those but no reviews. There seems to be a lot of issues with various caster arm bushings for our cars. The best one is figs but is on the expensive side. The cheaper solutions that has mostly good reviews are bushings from PSB and Roca. Still deciding on which I am going to go with.

Bought another 02 SD this time in GGP. Installed some L-Sport line springs springs and oem struts with my blitz z2 wheels. I need a wok bumper and driver fender.
Installed a new headunit last night.
I wanted to stay double din, but didn't want a screen so I'm pretty happy with how it fits and looks.
One question however: everything functions, but I can not get a radio signal. On the back on the radio harness there is one wire left (amp-on), which I'm assuming is remote and needs to be wired to the antenna. I've searched multiple guides and can not find an antenna wire. On 1999 and up it's listed as black w/ red stripe, but on 1998 it says N/A (and I do not have a black/red wire).
Do you actually have a power antenna on yours? I have an 03 GS300 and the antenna is built into the windshield. All you should need is the main antenna plug connected. I just did a recent double din install. I added a small amp to power the stock sub, which sounds great! .
Mine has a power antenna that changes height based on frequency. Because its all integrated with the factory head unit, I can get reception now but the aerial doesn't raise

Some international models had that feature, Australia I believe had that. Did you connect the power antenna wire from the car to the new head unit? I would think with that wired it would just raise it when on and lower it when off (disabling the frequency feature).

Nice, is that android HU ? what model? form ebay? about to do something same in some time, how is sound quality on that?
At the time they had a promotion for a free wired dash cam too.
I am thinking about connecting it to my 01 GS3 ML AMP using the 4.1 RCA preouts, need to find out if the drivers speaker cuts out from the HU, AMP, or speaker first.

Ya, it's a full Android HU. I got it off Amazon https://www.amazon.com/NAVISKAUTO-An.../dp/B0151MM8PG . It looks and sounds great. The only downside is that it runs a little large, which makes installing a little tricky. I had to trim the dash kit, and use part of the OEM brackets. Totally worth it tho.
