Mistermann Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 rear upper suspension arm - does it go by any other name? As above - my MOT advisories said to change the bushes but looking on the powerflex website they are described as either trailing arm, link arm or track control arm - can any confirm if there is another name for the rear upper suspension arm bushes? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Ian Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 If its the "y" ish shaped thing in the suspension on the rear Toyota call it the Control arm and is around £280-£300 new from Mr T and you cannot buy new bushes from them just the arm .........im unsure if you anyone else does new bushes for said arm ?

TTRickeh Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I read on here someone saying they didn't do the upper arms. Their little diagram doesn't seem to show the upper arms either. Try some SuperPro bushes from Whifbitz i've bought some from there before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 More expensive, but you'll get better results replacing with brand new OEM Toyota arms. Whichever option you choose, do both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
