I have a question, do you guys know any aftermarket bushing that could be a replacement for rear toe adjuster inner bushing?
The OEM part number is exactly FD01-26-230.
In my country this OEM part is unbelievably expensive (Over 450$ for a pair), so I'm looking for alternatives.
There is also option to buy poliuretane one, but apparently this one bushing is kind of different than the others (I believe it's called "floating" bushing?), so they claim that it can't be replaced by poliuretane.

Any advice is appreciated, my current ones are so worn out that every time I brake I hear metalic sounds coming from the rear as the rubber is broken

I think powerflex and superpro do those bushes and work on the basis of deformation.

They really should be OEM or spherical to articulate smoothly and avoid stiction though. Ray Crowe did send overseas several years ago, and I'd try him first, otherwise a bit more expensive https://www.amayama.com/en/catalogs/...-subframe-2935

If the outer one is gone, no doubt the inner is sure to follow suite too!

Ahoj.
Your thread title specifies the INNER bushing but that part number seems to be for the OUTER toe/link bushing….which I think are usually the first to wear out.

Is that price you mentioned from Polish parts sources or is that getting it shipped there from the U.S. ? Because there are suppliers here that are willing to ship internationally.
Personally I would go aftermarket only as a last resort.

FD01-28-42Y is the inner bushing, list price in the US is 98.94 each
FD01-26-230 is the outer pillow ball, $95.95 in the US each

the whole toe link FD02-28-450 is $562.37 US each

@Sgtblue Yeaa, it is actually the outer one, my bad. This high price (450$+) is getting it directly from Mazda here in PL. Do you know any sources where can I get it cheaper?

Because for example, atkins rotary, it has them for 80$ each + 60$ shipping, so thats 220$ + VAT tax + customs duty so it's going to be 400$ anyways.... just for two small bushings

You can’t avoid the shipping, VAT and other taxes so that’s probably about the best deal you can get.
You might find complete aftermarket arms but be careful. Some I’ve seen are cheaply made, would tend to transmit a lot of noise and probably wouldn’t last very long. Possibly even dangerous. Their big appeal just seems to be bright colors.

Again, for a street-driven car I personally would stay with the stock arms and bushings if possible.

The thing is, I can avoid expensive shipping, taxes and stuff by just buying not in the US, but at least in Europe. Hence my question here, if you guys know any aftermarket bushings that I can just pick up at any store for a couple of bucks and call it a day, instead of paying 10% of the motor rebuild costs just for this simple issue.

Apparently I found that PowerFlex makes purple poliuretane version of these, costs about 65$ for both so that's pretty nice, if I don't find any other option I'll probably end up going for these

Might want to consider replacing the entire link with an aftermarket one that uses heim aka rose joints. Should be cheaper. I suspect some of the UK rotary shops have that but Uk isn't technically part of EU any longer...
