Default Anybody know where Lextreme gets their upper control arm bushings?

Lextreme says that the bushings the use for the rebuilt 95 ls400 front upper control arm bushings are from Australia but who knows if this is true.

Anybody know where lextreme gets them?
or another rubber substitute?

The only other front uca bushings are on l-tunedparts.com but those are polyurethane.

I just dont want to spend the 400 to get lextreme to install the bushings.

superpro only makes poly bushings, and only for the 1LS.

This looks very promising but that was for a used engine block. I doubt a company that sells used engines also makes rubber bushings. But i guess it is possible.

Any more info on that company? The only things I could find were in french.
