Rear Bushes

[Nitmoi]

Still not got anywhere sourcing the rear lower rear bushing.

I drew a blank just about everywhere so far.

Does anyone suddenly remember where they may be had?

Lexus want to sell the whole casting to replace one small poly bush!

97 LS400

Type in 'bushings' on eBay, there were some on there last week.{USA]

Don't type 'bushes' in the states they are bushings!

Have you tried all the boy racer type places like Deamon Tweaks etc. Might not be your kind of thing, but they still do quality parts and you dont have to have a 15 foot spoiler either!! ;)

Have you tried SuperFlex.

[kendr]

Replaced mine with Superflex bushes some time ago, UK agent based in Cornwall if I remember correctly. Go to the Australian site and look for agents. Cost approx £45 for both sides

[Nitmoi]

kendr,

I already got nowhere with Superflex but.......

What age is your Lexus?

What part number was it?

The Superflex site appears to offer no prices for these items. When I found them the were not for the 96 onwards model.

Perhaps I am confused (I am)

You're looking in the wrong section.

I've answer this before.

PRI racing now do the full kit of superpro bushes for the LS400's.

Quick delivery aswell.

Did the bushes on mine last night (tue), ordered Superpro poly bushes from pri racing on sunday. Total cost approx £45. Fitting time was about 1.5 hours each side using a hack saw and punch to remove the old bushes.

Bazgtr - Their site only shows bushes for up to 1994 cars, This is why I am not confident.

Paul - Is yours a post 95 model or a 94? They are supposed to be different busshes. Are they?

Pri are enquiring on my behalf right now.

Thanks for your consideration.

It is impossible to tell by looking at their pictures.....

[PaulInman]

Mine's a series 2 94 although i would be suprised if they changed them.

[Nitmoi]

A bit of Clarity:

Priracing has just emailed me showing that they have updated their site page to state that the bushes fit 12/89-2000.

So it looks like they are the same after all!

Hooray!!

I shall order them soon.

Thanks Steve2006 That looks like the carrier arm as he says but what I ID as the Rod rear strut from the Lexus book and Trailing arm as per another description.

My problem is with lower arm No.2 as described in Lexus book 48730A part no. outer bushings. I hope that the Pri racing Part no. SPF3015K is the right one.

Its so confusing when all the parts have different names in the manuals and again on the part sites!
