Default Rear lower control arm bushing for SC430

Hi There

I was wondering if someone could please shine some light for me!

I am needing to replace the Rear lower control arm bushing for a SC430 2002 model and I have been told that these are difficult to find and I will be charged $800 each as they are exported out of Japan.

Would this be right? I was hoping someone could help me with where else I can buy it and perhaps an approximate cost, as I have a feeling i might be getting ripped off a little!

Perhaps they quoted me $800 to replace the arm? i am unsure but i have attached a photo.

Hopefully someone could help me

That is not the rear lower arm, that is the front tension rod bushings for an sc430. Same part as a gs300 second gen. Look on the gs300 suspension section and that will help you.

Ive seen people replace the bushings but there are also upgraded bushings and sepherical replacements. I bought an arm off ebay for my gs300 and it was ok.

For the rear arms, look here: http://battleversion.com/store/gs300-gs400-gs430-97-05/

Thanks heaps for your reply, I didn't think it looked right so i really appreciate your advice!

I will shop around for the front tension rod bushings as i obviously do not need a rear lower arm.

Cheers!
