so the control arm bushings (top and bottom) are dried up and worn out on the 2000 4runner. i have looked all around for aftermarket polyurethane ones and cant find any. as for the dealer its about 400 bucks for uppers and lowers for both sides. screw that. is there any budget way to get rid of the squeaking. i.e. lubing them bitches up with some grease. dont really need the performance of the poly bushings and would rather not spend the money at all. any help is appreciated.

 

Have you thought of getting used ones?

Don't know what the price would be but if they're significantly cheaper...you might just get your money's worth.
