Okay, these bushings, TC rods or strut rod bushings or whatever are driving me nuts.

The dealership says I have to replace the whole damn thing, rod and all which will run like $200....uh.....no.

There are bushing companies out there that sell whole kits, but i dont need a whole kit, just the 2.

Anybody know where i can get JUST the 2 bushings and metal sleevsesses and stuff without paying an arm and a leg? If i can just get econo-replacement ones it would be great, even the nismo ones are $$$$$$$, and i dont want polyurethane cause i hear they crack in extreme cold, which is common where i live

local parts stores cant help me either

thanks in advance

k what, you have the strut rods with bushings in already?? and if I bought yours, what do you want for them?? See i dont see a point to paying for a new strut rod when mine are fine. Will whiteline or energy sell me just those bushings or the whole friggin kit?

they sell just the bushings. take out the old ones, put in the new ones you bought, drive away.

only benefit to buying mine is that you dont have to install the new ones. costs like 30 dollars to install if you dont do it yourself. i'm selling them cheap anyway, pm me if you want them.
