Ok so my fd's rear control arms lower bushings are all busted up. I tried to get some used lower control arms
But I could find them. I then opt to change the stock revolving bushing for some custom made solid bushing.
This was a total fiasco. With the solid bushing, the makes a klunk sound when takin off or heavy braking. Plus the
Cars feels too stiff and uncomfortable. All the bushing kits I have seen have solid bushing. Do they all feel like that?
Where can I get some used lower rear control arms or some revoling stock bushing? Need help asap!

Another option can be to buy all the oem pillow pivoting bushings. I seen that rhdjapan has the in stock
Any ideas?

You won't find a used lower control arm bushing. The process of removing it pretty much destroys it.

The OEM price on that bushing is about $95.
From Mazda Motorsports it is about $55 for either the stock or the Mazdaspeed bushing.

Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda can probably get you a similar price on the OEM bushing.

i have seen the entire pillow ball bushing kit (6 bushings) go for $360 plus shipping from RHDjapan. Looking for a more economic solution, since the car is being sold and don't want to spent a lot of money. I don't inderstand why you say that the process of removing the lower control arms destroys the bushing.

Because part of the flange must be cut from the bushing so it can be pressed out.

The bushing could probably be re-used in an emergency, but I sure would not put one in a car I was going to sell. That's just not right.

Atomic Rex.

Yes, they do have some very nice lower arms.

Cost is quite a bit more than a pair of bushings.

Thanks for your input. Already bought the OEM mazda pillow bushing from Ray Malloy.
