That makes sense I suppose... im looking for 93-97 supra LCAs, right?

And of course they have all bushings and ball joints already in them, no extra parts needed, just a $300 savings vs the normal LCAs?

And where can I get steering rack bushings?

I'm having a hard time changing my lower bushings. I can't find the tool to rent any were. What does it look like. And I'm real timped to see if I can burn them off or something the bushing are in peices; would I need to get them pressed out?

Get a propane torch and burn them out. Very messy/smelly but is the easiest at home method.
