Rear suspension help?
I just replaced my rear shocks and noticed the rear camber bolt bushing was shot. The inner sleeve was barely hanging in the rubber. Does anyone offer a replacement for this?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Here is a link to the GB for the Front and Rear Camber Kit: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/clu...our-tires.html

I am also in need of both rear knuckle bushings. I was told by my parts department at work, that they do not sell those bushings separately...and that you need to buy the whole knuckle to get them. I don't think that the rear camber kit comes with a new bushing. I can't find replacement bushings anywhere. I know they can be replaced, but don't know who sells the parts. Any help would be appreciated...I don't care if they are OEM style rubber, polyurathane, or pillow ball....just need something

I know how you feel, why would Lexus design their cars so you have to buy thousands of dollars of parts to replace a simple bushing? I've never seen another car like this. I feel like giving my car away.

The entire unit is called the Axle Carrier.
For just the bushing...I think this is what you are looking for....

Tony from Luxury Mods said he only had the bushing for where the rear traction bar attaches to the rear knuckle. Still in much need of the other bushing. Anyone know a source? Here is a picture to help...

no luck so far. I am not giving up on this one...I refuse to shell out over a grand in knuckles, wheel bearings and hubs just to get the rear knuckle bushings replaced....that's just crazy. please give me a shout if anyone knows a place that sells them.

Well I guess nobody really knows about this one. I did find a rear knuckle bushing set on Hardrace.com, but it's for the IS300. I want to say they are the same bushings, but the OEM part numbers for rear axle carriers is different for the IS and GS. Also, it seems as if you can not purchase anything from the Hardrace website....how do you buy their products??? Makes no sense to me
