Hi all I am having a hard time finding the rear control arm bushing that connects the control arm to the knuckle on a 2014 rx250 awd. Lexus dealer says I need to purchase the the knuckle and it will have the bushings in it but the bushing is not available separately. Has anyone had this problem or been able to locate and aftermarket bushing? any help here would be great thanks
Are you referring to this arm, that the spring sits on (#9) ? Or one of the other rear arms? Usually it is the rear trailing arm bushings (#3) that fail on the RX.
Or replace the entire arm

I am referring to the control arm #9. it attaches to the lower right hand side of knuckle #2, the bolt was seized in the bushing and I needed to cut it out to replace a broken spring. Good old Vermont rust...... The bushing measures OD 56mm ID 14mm and length of the metal sleeve is 23mm.
So there are 2 arm #9 sorry I didn't see that earlier. I am looking for the bushing that goes where the arrow is on the knuckle. Is that the arm you are talking about? If so what is the website that will have them? Rockauto?
Dang, sorry - I looked at the lower #9 in the pic that has the bushings in it.
That bushing you are looking for is only part of the knuckle from a lexus dealer. Its about $432 when onsale.
Good luck in your search for an aftermarket one - I'm sure somebody has found one. But pressing it out and in looks like a nightmare...
