he ordered from TM
I am aware of two, the first being Carson, the second is Armstrong http://www.armstrongdistributors.com/207.html

I don't see the all important caster arm bushings though.

thats cause fangtl has the wrong link, thats for the steering rack bushings and you didnt seem to look, if u scroll down the page you will see the control arm bushing kits. this is the right picture for it

for the REAR carrier bushing or the front castor bushing? nm i looked its the same price for both
Jesus man for JUST the castor bushing maybe its worth it to take the time with TM.their whole control arm KIT is ONLY $99.95 plus shipping an having to deal with their BS
maybe not though it kind of is a personal preference here. buy the 2 bushings from carson and get them asap or buy a whole control arm kit from TM for $3 more (not counting shipping prices) and cross your fingers bout when you gonna get them
seriously Carson that's pretty high for just the castor bushings, i guess its a simple formula of supply and demand here

nothing ever happened, never got any kind of communication back from the. sent several emails and made a few phone calls,even tried to pull some strings with family in japan but it went literally no where
some people have had this good fortune,MOST have not though. i always say its a crap shoot when buying from their as you truthfully never know when you will get them and even after you get a shipping notification that doesnt even mean they have shipped

my apologies man, i was told you only offered the one bushing for the castor arm which we all know wouldnt universally work on the different gs (98-2000/2001+) arms. since i do have the TM bushings and at the moment they dont need replacing i never did my own research. sorry...

i posted a few different emails/phone numbers for him BUT you probably wont get in touch with him. occasionally i got him to respond to emails but eventually he just wont talk....

So bottom line is that we are screwed! It seem more of a headache over there with Todd. I personal have shizzy luck so with said I would be waiting forever. No one can Daizen anywhere else????
