@digitatc thanks for the info, I have some pulley pullers, but nothing that beefy. Was the old bushing completely warn out or just need lubrication? Can it be lubricated in place?
Thanks again,
Barry

@bmanone the left one was moving about 1mm in/out. I replaced both.
It had the rubber boot but I took it off before I pressed it out.
If your doesn't move, then I guess, don't bother.
You can take a look at this thread, it has more detail. It's the GS300 but it uses the same part as our car. We share most of the front suspension components and some of the rears with the 2nd gen GS.

Did an ECU reset today, WOW! Throttle response definitely is improved.

Now shopping for all new replacement speakers. Having a hard time with this one, can't decide between a kicker, polk, or an alpine setup. also struggling to decide if I want to replace the front Lexus badge with the griffin. Decisions to be made and work to be done, will keep this updated...

Nice job! How are the replaced parts working so far? I need to do a similar upgrade to my suspension. @dumpllings
