looking for recommendations specifically for poly bushings for 1999 lower control arms .I have searched and found that the 1997-2000 are slightly different. I still have my 99 oem set with excellent ball joints ,and a aftermarket set of the 1992-1996 NAS arms that I bought on ebay( toylex parts) a few years back .Unfortunatley both left and right aft bushings on both sides) are toast after 2.5 years so I think I want to go poly as an last attempt
any assistance is greatly appreciated

I attempted modifying a 92-96 bushing into the 97+ arm. I ended up trashing the arms and buying supra TT arms because it wasn't worth the effort. It took forever to trim the bushing cups to fit.

i used the Prothane bushings on mine. I have a 99 SC400 but the arms are the NAS arms from ebay. Not sure if there is difference but I didn't have to trim anything on mine.

There is a difference between the arms of a 92-96 and 97-2000
I have my originally 99 arms with great ball joints but bad bushings and a Set of the NAS arms from ebay with good joints , but the aft bushings on the arms are done for

I prefer to rebuild the items if I can locate a proper bushing that first require extreme modification

I just recently replaced the LCA bushings on my 97 SC300 with the SuperPro poly bushings. It took some time to figure out but I was able to modify the control arm so that the bushings fit perfectly! I have been driving on them for a few months now and have no issues.

Here is my original post with some pictures. Let me know if you have any questions or need any other pictures, I have a few that I didn't post

These are the bushings I bought

Edit: If you decide to go this route I would recommend ordering more of the grease!

can old bushings be pressed out with the shell rather than burning the rubber out and leaving she'll in for poly bushings? I'd rather replace with rubber bushings and ball joints are decent so only the bushings need replacement.
