Strut bar bushing
Im new to this club so just joining in on some topics. I just ordered the whole strut bar from oemlexusparts.com for 107 each side. Its more than the bushings alone but you need to take it out anyway press the old one out and press the new one in (at least thats what a few mechanics said)so I just replaced entirely. I had a clunking noise in the front end over bumps and when i hit the brakes you could here it. are you experiencing the same?

cool thanks, i think they are out of stock though i might phone and see if they can get them in. How hard were they to change just the bushings?, im also curious if the car was smoother afterwards.
