You can get the bolt only at toyota/lexus. The bushing on the other hand is a little more complicated. You need to either get new lower control arms from lexus or toyota (supra tt work and are cheaper) or you can buy aftermarket bushings and remove the old and replace. Good luck

i have bushings for it but i cant get the control arm off. The steel bolt it rusted to the steel sleeve in the bushing, so it wont slide out or pound out. cut the bolt is the only way to get the control arm off. so now im going to need the steel sleeve on the rear bolt off the front control arm ??? any help

I guess I am missing something...If u have new bushing what do you need a sleeve for? I bought new control arms which had the bushings and to be honest dont remember what they looked like but I am not sure there is a sleeve that goes in there that shouldnt already be part of the bushing.

If your not worried about destroying the old bushung, use lots of heat (torch) and a bfh (hammer) to get the bolt out. You'll still need a new bolt but you may be able to save the sleeve.
I have the same problem, found out when I was doing my alinment. The bushing will twist when trying to adjust camber / caster. Leaving it alone for now, my alignment isn't too far off.

Just need verification that if I purchase a Toyota Supra NA or TT camber adjusting bolt, that it will be the same (identical as) the sc300 bolt as to mine was seized when trying to remove the bolt from the cross member and LCA. Thanks for any expertise.
