I have a 00 Lexus is200
Unfortunately it failed nct on rear bushes
Bushes can not be bought separate you have get complete hub so i got 2nd hubs and fitted them and still a little play
To buy theses off Toyota is €270 plus vat each and I need 2

Can anyone tell me if I can get them poly bushes
There is 2 bushes in either side
Both are pressed into hub assembly

Cheers

vectra 96-01 rear hub bush.
has to be a main dealer part as you need its outer surface to be steel.

you take off the hubs and press out the old bush, give the area a good clean up
use a vernier to measure the inner diameter of the hole on the hub.
you then get the bush skimmed to be the same as standard they are a little too big - hence needing a steel outer case so it can be skimmed.
