thanks y'all

as we are most used to the differences between the 98-00 and 01-05,

the lower control arm which holds the large caster bushing was upgraded in the second half of 2000 so if Im correct most 2000 models have the better/larger lower control arm #2. Hence the kit is fitted for 2000-2005..

Hope that helps.

Not sure about the bushing kit being correct but I do recall the Daizen pictures are generic and don't match the bushing kit parts..

Sorry I cant help with the count as I don't have a kit to compare..

You're missing the large caster bushings. They are probably the bushings you need most. Everything else is just complimentary.

You got ripped off, sorry. After I used my caster arm bushings, I still had all the stuff left shown in photo below. You don't have nearly as many pieces in your video - and again, that is AFTER I already used the caster arm bushings. Sorry man.

Funny, he didn't even attempt to pronounce mine, I was relegated to being one of the "some others" . But I did see that he had my tutorial up on the computer screen. Having said that, I did not sell him those bushings, in case there are any doubts .
