I was wondering where everyone gets OEM type upper control arm bushings? I called the dealer and local stores, and they are all over priced. Again im looking for OEM type! not Energy bushings. Thanks

Upper arms(whole arm with bushings):
48630-14010 $176 left
48610-14010 $201 right

Bushing:
48632-14010 $24 x 4 = $96

That's not too bad for OEM bushings. You do get what you pay for and don't want to skimp.

Damn id be better off with some energy bushings then, they cost like 85 dlls and its a whole set for upper and lower control arm bushings.

As long as you understand poly bushings will produce a stiffer/rougher ride. Make sure you lube with some good moly grease.

I'd think you would have already figured out that replacement parts for these cars aren't cheap...who gives a shit about $96?

Jay Marks is the name of the dealership.

The person people are probably referring to is Jeff Watson, who does not do online sales anymore. You'll want to call the dealership.

It's called champion toyota....do a search on this forum and you'll find the phone #...there are a few toyota dealers that give us nice deals when you mention supramania! I'd do a search for you but I'm at work and on my iPhone.

I just called a very reputable Dealership in the Phnx area. He even gives discounts for us at our local AZ forum. He told me that the lower control arms appear to no be serviceable. He said I needed to buy the whole front lower control arm.

Is this true?

I just wanted the front lower control arm bushings

Yes, dealerships sell control arms as a whole.

Problem is the only thing I need is the front lower control arm bushings, not the whole lower control arm.
