How hard is it to replace your bushings yourself?
Are the SC3 and SC4 the same bushings and shocks etc.

Same problem here - replaced my lower LCAs with supra TT arms and put on some new tires - still getting some funky noises.

Have a feeling that I will need to do shocks next and likely tie rod ends and UCAs.

You say you put a new bushing, if it wasn't the lower control arm bushing which was it?
