I just installed mine last weekend with the help of AdamC (Thanks Adam!). Needless to say, after ~100k miles, my lower control arm (inner) bushings were TOTALLY shot. I'll be sure to take pics once I can get a hold of a camera, but I really recommend those of you who have a high mile chasis to change them asap.

Just installed them. No more clunk clunk!
Now all I need are a pair of nylon bushings for the lower longitudinal arm.

But seriously, I'd order a new set (12). A new set will ensure that dirt and liquids won't enter the bushings, causing premature wear and corrosion.

Obviously many people prefer to deal with a company like malloy, but I can do these for US$265. That's surface mail from japan though (air mail = same price as malloy - so that's a no-brainer).
I can do it a little cheaper for aussies.
They're about 4000yen a pop from mazda japan.

I installed new pillowball bushings over the weekend on my 93 R1 w/ 130K. Yeah, no more clunking!! I purchased 6 dust shields and replaced the ones in bad shape. Tip: Remember to pry the dust shields from the center. You'll damage them if you pry from the outer edge - BTDT. Another satisfied customer of Ray Crowe @ Malloy Mazda!!! Thanks for the notice WaLieN!
