Glen - glad to see your positive comments on the bushings. I need to get off my duff and bring my car to Exact. I have a long list of stuff that needs to be done.

Like I say and Henry replied, can I take the front arms off and have a machine shop press out the old bearings? From what I read, the bushings on the LS just slip right in.

well, theoretically, yes. the gs ones are like that too, as long as you have the press and the way with to press it with the right tool, you can press it out. but you just gotta do it right

I meet Todd yesterday at D1 Grand Prix booth at Irwindale Speedway yesterday and he told me he will run a special installation rate soon.

I have my Daizen bushing installed last month in Indianapolis and experienced some problem with my ABS sensors due the fact that mechanic does not have experience on my GS3.
Acording to Todd replacing this bushings you have to do it in sequenced to avoid damage on sensors.

Replacing your abs sensor will cost you 240 dollars plus labor at lexus dealer. Around 450$.

I suggest to anyone wanted to have daizen upgrade call Todd or email him.

Exact charges 5 hours labor. Forgot what his labor rate is though.

If it is $80 per hour than it would be $400 - 20% discount coupon from EOS = $320.

If you don't have the bushings already, then I strongly suggest you order them from John.

I believe he will discount his labor a bit if you buy the bushings from him directly. Not 100% sure abouit this though. Let me check back again.

The Daizen bushings, sways,all Daizen products cost the same, no matter where you purchase themr from. Also if if you purchase from Exact directlly, you won't pay for shipping.

i believe the ongoing rate at exact is 90 or 96, 80 was a long time ago. but like glen said, if you buy the bushing from them they will "adjust" it accordingly.

i think it's probably better if they just have a package deal
