this is what it said exactly


"Brian,

Your order has been received, however these control arm bushing kits have
been a very hot seller, and are currently backordered, but we should be
receiving them in the next week or two. We already had them on order, but
quite a few have already been presold. Please let us know if you would like
to keep them on order, if so you will definitely be in the batch that is
arriving, and they will ship as soon as we receive them.

Thank you and sorry for any inconvenience from this.

TM Engineering"

well emailed him this morning just checking on it, got a return email this afternoon.

i asked him what the update was, this was the response.

"Still anxiously waiting. We have a pretty good number coming, but a good portion are sold already since we have been out for a few weeks now. These are hard to get a hold of in quantities, we can never get enough unfortunately."

Just an FYI for those that are considering ordering through them.

I ordered 2 sets of control arm bushings (one for me and one for my brother) on 4/4/10. I received a follow up email similar to the one sakataj received on 4/5/10. I followed up around 4/14/10 have not heard back from them yet.

I'm putting off doing my L-tuned springs and struts until I get the bushings.

i got a return email back AGAIN after my last email i got i asked him so did that mean i would get mine on this order?


No, yours will be in the next batch for sure, but we have so many people simply inquiring, they might be left out. But that’s not your problem =)


i for some reason had a brain fart and didnt understand and emailed him and asked him if i was for sure in or out and got this email back quickly


"You are in."


so looks like i will be getting mine in this next batch.funny though they STILL haven't charged my card for something i ordered on the 1st

Email sent Sat17APR for a follow-up, his response I received on Mon19APR:
"No word yet, we are simply waiting.
Towards the end of the week might be a possibility, but no way to tell. We will keep you posted.
Thank you"


I'm not worried I won't get them. Just would like to know so I can setup some time off to redo my suspension

Brian, you should have waited on your first order...It takes a while! Dude needs to put on his website when they are backordered/how many are in stock. The steering rack bushings come in REAL QUICK, but for some reason he can't get these stocked.

Then again, if Toyota made the bushings properly, or would do a TSB on them, we'd not have this problem, now would we? LOL

Anybody who is wanting these bushings, needs to put in an order and wait, that's the only way to get them...I've had mine sitting here for like 2 months waiting until I gather all the parts to refresh the whole front end.

Thanks for keep us posted. I was going to ask if anyone has heard any updates but it doesn't sound like it.
