Been covered many many times buddy. Need a little more research... Research SC300/400 specifically and you'll get tons of result.

Daizen busing is one. You can get a set from TM engineering.

Thats what it is... It was at the tip of my tongue I couldn't remember what it was hahahaa... Yeah get Prothane xxx92sc400. I don't think they have a specific kit so you'll have to figure out the sizes/diameter bushings you need.

Daizen isn't a "rip off" of Prothane. I suspect Daizen had some sort of contract with Prothane to manufacture the parts under that name which expired a couple years ago. TM Engineering had something to do with this, probably the R&D / test fitting.

Daizen and Prothane kits appear to be the same, except Daizen has a couple versions of the kit that include the inner and outer sleeves if the old ones are seized. I made my own inner sleeves.

Look on the Daizen site at the bottom for their versions.

The Prothane part number was mentioned by msc300
