Bushing suggestions
I am looking to get polyurithane bushings for my 87 supra cause the ones on it squeek and it is annoying. I read that Duane Stephens had some energy suspension bushings on his car but cant find anyone that carries them. Did he have them special made? or is there a kit? I am looking on lowering the car with a TEIN super sport coilover suspension and want to replace the bushings at the same time to get it all in one shot well cept for the sway bar and tie rod ends but any help would be appreciated.

Damn, 800 bucks for bushings seems kinda steep.

Thats a kit with trd bushings and stainles steel pins, So thats why itsa lot. I would never pay 800$ for suspension bushings tho. Just keep searching...im sure someone has some.

Why? they are just pieces of some squishy material(like rubber or polyurethane, both readily available for very cheap) milled in a circle. Probably the cheapest non universal car part there is. I would buy the stainless pins, Because they rust and break/bend and then you cant get the nut off. It would be cool if they sold those seperatley. Ive even seen regular ABS plastic style bushings, which would cost like 50 cents to make, and they work great but dont last long.
