I am having trouble locating some after market outer rear control arm bushes. I need them for a warrant but can not find some.

I would use genuine ones but......Toyota will only sell a complete knuckle at $560 :evil:

Any help appreciated

Otherwise maybe someone may have dimensions they could give me

Cheers

Try Stocks in Aucks... (09) 270 7222

They sorted me out some bushes for the rear end of mine but in the end the "knowledgable" warrant guys got it wrong as the bushes were fine. Shock Absorber Services (SAS) stock whiteline bushes too so they might be worth a shot.

If its the swivel type bush/joint in the rear hub your talking about the HBI engineering in Christchurch recondition them.
I had a mr2 one done last week and have had numerous levin ones done approx $90 to get it done.
I tried everywhere aftermarket with no luck and as you say toyota only sell the whole hub assembly.
