Bushings, Bushings, Bushings
It seems like replacing worn bushings and Mounts on the GS is key to making the car run/ feel like new again.
I am trying to make a list of all the various bushings on the GS so I can figure out which ones I still need to replace.
So here we go....
Front UCA Bushings
Front LCA Bushings
Front LCA 2 Bushings
Steering Rack Bushings
Rear Axle Carrier Bushings
Rear Trailing Arm Bushings
Engine Mounts/ Transmission Mounts GS3 GS4
Differential Bushings
What am I missing? Also how would you guys prioritize this list? I have replaced my Front LCA 2/ Caster Arm Bushings, My full Front UCA's, and have Steering Rack Bushings ready to install.
*Notes:
I have heard only good things about installing new Engine and Tranny Mounts. It seems like the consensus is that installing these new mounts makes the GS's low idle problem a non issue as it gets rid of the vibration.
And lately people have been talking about replacing the Rear Axle Carrier Bushing in order to get rid of squeaking, or other nasty sounds coming from the rear.

I recently replaced my Armstrong poly steering rack bushes with the Daizen bushes and the difference is like night and day. Steering is now very precise and I love driving the car again.
