figs has a solid bushing solution for these guys....

he is a vendor on here so PM him and ask him

i also would ask chris4.3 if he would split the cost or pay for it....unless you knew about it before hand. this ripped bushing is one of main reasons for the annoying squeaks the stance/megans can develop

PM a mod and ask them to move it for you

DOUBTFUL with 15k on his the manufactures gonna warranty it.....ESPECIALLY since he isnt the original owner

Ask stance directly? They have good service.

wth? did u just completely give up on the OTHER thread you made AND the answer i gave you that solves the problem?

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...coilovers.html

i mean you responded in their so why make a 2nd thread asking the same thing instead of just asking a mod to move it to the suspension forum as i offered to you in the first place?
