Oem replacement bushing???
Hey I've done tons of researching and come back to the same question.
Where can I buy oem bushings for my 95 sc300?
Bought supra lca and uca but the ride got ruff.
I also shaped my steering rack bushings to daizen but I feel alot more than I want to in the steering.
Does anyone know a good alternative other than polyurethane?
Is there a higher quality polyurethane that may be softer?
Any input will be greatly appreciated

Thanks but I called lexus and they said the bushing is built into the control arm :/ I'll try another dealer and see.
Thanks for the help on the diff info a few months back.

Sewell Lexus used to offer Prothane control arm bushings as an aftermarket solution but to my knowledge they did not sell any oem bushings for the uppers and lowers. From what I understand the upper is going to transfer more of the rough ride then the lower. So I would try to replace the upper bushing if you can find it first and see if that helps. For what it's worth I have the same set up as you and have had my '92 SC400 since '97 and I didn't notice that much difference in the ride quality after changing to the Supra set up.

Oh I see I'm not sure what else it could be. Compared to my oem bushings I felt the difference.
But I know it doesn't help that I'm lowered on wheels
I will change the upper bushings as I order some polyurethane and will see how that effects the ride.
But my goal is to keep the luxury aspect of my sc

Had the shop replace all the front ca bushings using a Prothane kit.... Could not be happier with the feel of the steering and overall ride....
Lowered on coil overs on 19s....
