That's pretty much all of them, however you can change the bushings out of the other control arm. Most around here don't bother with it but it is possible

Great thanks, looks like 495 shipped from sewells a few hours of labor and I'll be gtg. The only thing im worried about is getting that old bushing out from the lca.

Yea, I got the PSB ones on my steering rack. Firms it up a bit. Not very noticeable until you hit the freeway where the PS starts to automatically stiffen up anyway, then the wheel gets very responsive. I can't complain though because the only reason why I got the bushings was to get rid of the excess play that I had in my steering. For that, the PSB's took care of...

so just to clarify, these bushings
http://lexus.sewellparts.com/accesso...2000/4685.html
will actually fit the 2000 gs300 right??

I just ordered the 1997-1999 bushings because i read that they were in fact the correct ones, and the 2000-2005 ones were incorrect.. (i have a 2000 gs300)

daizen also lists the 2000-2005 bushings as well
http://www.daizensporttuning.com/pro...-bushings.html

soooo all in all, 1997-1999 caster bushings are NOT the same for 2000-2005 caster bushings correct?

Can someone please help me answer this? I'm planning on swapping out my bushings this weekend.. i don't want to torch the bushing and have one that doesn't fit at all.. which will leave my car unable to be used or driven..

Does anyone know the hole diameter of the 98-00 and 01-05 arms? I have a spare set of arms, but no idea what year they are from.
