I told you guys to get them from passracing. I have had mine sitting next to my supra tt rear brakes for weeks now.

@sc-driver the lowers are the ones that take the majority of the of the use. Most people even recommend not to change your uppers because they are "broken in" resulting in a smoother ride.

I canceled my order with JEGS and reordered with passracing and got them in 3 days. Just waiting for the rest of the bushings I ordered.

It looks like there are many people already ordered the bushings. Have you installed them? by yourself or at a shop? What are your feedbacks? How much for the installation? Was it worth the cost?
My LCA bushings are gone but when I last talked to a shop he wanted 4 hours for the install alone.

i didn't use my front upper and lower control arm bushings for my sc400 so if anyone is interested lmk. decided to just buy supra oem lca's. do you guys think if i buy the supra arms, should i replace the supra oem bushings with protanes? or should i just use the bushings that already comes with the supra arms?

quick question, when you guys are talking about lubing the bushings before you put it in, are you talking about just the inside, or the inside and outside of the bushing?

I thought i read somewhere that you are only supossed to use soapy water on the outside because thats where it sits on the control arm. I would like advice from someone who has done it and they are squeak free, cause that is ultimately all I really care about.
I need specific lubing instructions.... lol.

FWIW, I do have the rears back in stock and I try to keep the fronts in but these are pretty popular, Prothane can only make so many of them!
