Hey all, I need some more bushes on the cel that arnotts and ebay can't help me with..

I need the front strut bar to chassis bushes, the rack mount bushes and the front sway bar "d" bushes.

Genuine they want $261 each for the strut bushes alone which is a joke and surely someone must make them aftermarket....

Thanks for any info guys ...

I bought bushes 2 years ago from vlamos (vftbushes.com) I have found them to be just as good as the originals and not to bad on price. I highly recomend them as they are designed to maintain the feel of the original bushes which polyurethane bushes (such as whiteline)wont do.

Except VFT are more expensive than genuine, so I clearly don't see the point.

SUPER PRO bushes are THE only way to go...forget all these other manufacturers,they are over priced.i re-fitted my whole font end for near on $400 bucks,less labour.if you D.I.Y. even cheaper.just the upper bushes need to be pressed in so keep that in mind.btw,i dont work for super pro!!!!they realy are good value.

Rack bushing right and left $52.36 each , sway bar bush $52.92 the pair , lower control arm bush $60.00 each , brand new upper control arms with new ball joint and new Heime bushes [ not pressed in rubber !!] about $560.00 the pair these can then be swapped straight in .
Front radius rod bushes about $200.00 each not exactly sure as I haven't priced the about items since the dollar dropped .
Didn't quote lower ball joints Brendan since I know you have new ones , these are all genuine Toyota stuff except for the control arms .

I now need bushes asap aswell.

Does anyone know of a place in brisbane that would give me a good price on installing the bushes if I was to supply (or even better if they can supply), I hate suspension work, so many tricks and techniques that I dont deal with enough to learn. Plus I dont own a hoist and my back doesnt permit me to lay under the car for long. My luxury car is getting shakey and rough, not happy! haha

I got the Arnott upper control arms from the US recently.

They are $199 THE PAIR


That includes left and right control arms, new bushings pre inserted and of course new ball joint attached.

Ive had them in for two weeks almost. Perfect.

Freight was USD$242.93 landed to my door.

Or AUD$281.08 at the time. Since I ordered the dollar has gained a fair few pennys.


Cheers to Rich for putting me onto them :-)
