'89 Toyota Cressida - at the outer end of the rear lower control arms, the shop says this bushing is too worn to do an alignment. It's not part of the control arm but pressed into a protrusion of the wheel assembly casting - the round area visible in the highlighted area. Trying to find out what tha t particular bushing is called so I can look for them online. As far as I c an see the Toyota shop manual doesn't address it.

What would you call it?

Thanks

Rear lower control arm bushing.

What's the car? You probably cannot get just the bushing from Toyota, typically you have to buy the entire link.

You may have some luck at AutoZone or a suspension specialist on-line.

Duh...Cressida...

You might have trouble finding them through Toyota, but I think it's the same as a Supra, so you might find on sorting through Supra parts as well.

Again, single bushings are usually available aftermarket...if at all. It took 2 days of searching to find Supra bushings. I had to get Urethane bushings...that's all there was.
