What one do you speak of? The one that holds it to the sub frame or the one that goes on the rod. The rod one is quite avail. I am not sure about the other one though.

I'm assuming this refers to the bushing at the opposite end of the ball joint that is pinned at the subframe..... I could not find one.

Josh has a listing of all you need on ShoNut.....

I am posting this for future reference by others.


The lower control arm bushing is a steel encased bushing that is pressed into/through the end of the lower control arm opposite the ball joint end.

The strut rod bushing is the larger rubber bushing that is pressed into/through the central portion of the lower control arm favoring the ball joint end.

Both can be replaced with the proper tools.
