where to get this bushing....?

the bolt that goes through this bushing was so rusted and corroded, u might as well fu**ing say it was welded together, that the only way to get it off was to turn really hard till the bushing ripped apart on the inside. so thats done, i go to the local mazda dealership, order a part even though we were both not sure if it was right, call them couple days later to find out it was wrong so they looked into it (cool guys there), and the only way i can get the bushing new is to buy the whole hub, hell no. so does anyone know where else to get this stupid bushing, i just want the plain old stocker. (the outside of the bushing is still on there in the pic, but i already pressed it out. and if u cant tell by the pic, this is the left rear hub. its the bushing on the front that goes verticle)

hey

you have two choices to get the orginal bushing from a mazda dealership or wherever you prefer to get your oem mazda parts, (victoria british...etc). Or you can pick up a set of Rear Suspension Upright Toe Eliminator that fit there from racing beat that will be 1/4 of the price of the original stuff from mazda. neway i hope i helped you out a bit ttyl peace

i hadnt seen them in victoria british. id rather like to get just stock for now but if i cant, yes, i was going to go with racing beat or other like so brands. i just want stock though because i just got done redoing the other side completely and just hate the idea of taking everything apart again just to put a new damn bushing in. to match the bad side. anyways...any more info people?

i would try a junkyard first. then i'd try a car-parts.com search in your area. you'd be surprised at what you'd find for real cheap.

Get the racing beat toe eliminators. I had these installed on my car and they feel awesome. I was told the corksport ones are not as snug. You will need to press them in and out. I had someone install them for me but there is a write up on teamfc3s about it. You dont want to pull the hubs and have them pressed it and out again if you install the stock ones and then later decide to get the RB toe eliminators. Get the RB ones and be done with it. I think you'll like it.

I suppose it depends how worn the OEM bushings are. I felt a big difference probably because my bushings were crap and not working the way they should have from the factory.
