*PLEASE READ THIS VIDEO DESCRIPTION AND THE COMMENT WE PINNED*
In this video, we show you how to replace bushings on the rear lower control arms of a 3rd Generation Toyota 4runner. Even though this repair was done on a 3rd Gen 4runner, the techniques we use to remove the control arms, press the old bushings out, get new bushings in and the arms back on the vehicle could be employed on a multitude of other vehicles.
Mark reported back that the excessive movement he was feeling in the rear end of his vehicle is now gone so worn out control bushings were the culprit.
*PARTS*
*Whiteline Bushing Kit Part #W63378

*If you found one or more of your control arm bolts were super rusty and you had to either damage them to get them out or you had to cut them out, one of our subscribers found some replacement bolts at Fastenal that are much more affordable than buying from Toyota.
