The lower rear control arms appear to be forged on 93s, on at least some 94+ cars they are cast.

The bushings in the arms have different part numbers over the years, not sure if JDM and USDM are different.

Hmmmm, are all the bushings different? Because if they are differenct then that really going to screw things up... Could they just be a dfferent kind of bushing, but be used ib any model?
