Since I'm replacing the bushings in my lower control arms, I went ahead and tried to place an order for a set of these. I'm not sure if they're just out of stock or what, because upon checking out, where I was expecting to put in my billing info, it asked for my email address instead to send me notification, I guess to send me a quote.

In my search for an alternative site to order from, you guys may already know this, but I just discovered that it's also the same part for an MR-S's lower control arm. The one's that I found are from Australia, I didn't want to pay double, due to shipping cost. So I'll continue looking around.

My snooping around also led me to spyderchat, and bump into this thread, pun not intended, where they're talking about similar issues; https://www.spyderchat.com/threads/w....155667/page-3

Not sure if it'd work for the Yaris though, Passat inner tie rod and S-14 bump steer kit.

I ordered them from Yume sports from the above link. Lead time is 2-3 months. It sucks but that seems to he the norm right now with current supply issues.

I'll post an update when they eventually come in and I have some seat time with them. My plan is to also order caster adjustable control arm bushings from power flex to replace my bon adjustable whiteline ones.

Reason is I'll have to get an alignment done and I don't want to have to do it twice.

Oh wow 2-3 months... I don’t want to wait that long to replace my bushings. Just wanted to do them at the same time since it would have been convenient.

here's another supposed site:

https://www.aleksracing.com/hardrace...ios-yaris-vitz

I received an invoice from them, and it comes out to $226 USD! Why Am I paying $70 for shipping when it’s not even overnight and it’s within the States?

Update: They said it's coming straight from Taiwan, that's why shipping is $70. I don't know, I might just bite the bullet on this. Wait is supposedly 2-3 weeks.
