ApplianPar Rear Arm Knuckle Bushings 6-Piece Kit for Toyota & Lexus — Direct-Fit OE Replacement, Restores Suspension Alignment

These ApplianPar 6-piece rear arm knuckle bushings are a direct-fit replacement set designed to restore rear suspension alignment and reduce play in compatible Toyota and Lexus 4WD models.

When rear-arm knuckle bushings wear, handling becomes vague and tire wear can increase. This 6-piece kit from ApplianPar supplies two bushing kits (each with three rear arm knuckle bushings) engineered to match original mounting dimensions for a straightforward swap. The parts are listed to fit a wide range of Toyota and Lexus vehicles across multiple model years, making the set a practical maintenance or repair choice for owners looking to refresh rear suspension components without replacing larger assemblies.

Which vehicles will these bushings fit?

The kit covers many Toyota and Lexus models, especially 4WD variants and certain hybrid models across the 1990s through the 2000s. Fitment includes popular Lexus RX and Toyota Highlander/Harrier families, plus a range of Camry, Avalon, Celica and older platform vehicles. Always verify chassis and model codes before ordering to ensure compatibility.

• Lexus: RX300/330/350 (MCU35/GSU35) 2003+, RX400H (MHU38) 2005+
• Toyota Highlander/Kluger: ACU25/MCU25 2000–2007, MCU28/MCU25 variants and hybrid MHU28 models
• Toyota Avalon, Camry/Vista, Celica, Carina ED, Corona Exiv, Curren and Harrier on listed model years

How do these bushings improve rear-end performance?

Replacing worn knuckle bushings removes excessive movement between the rear arm and knuckle, which tightens steering response and stabilizes the rear track during cornering. The kit reinstates intended suspension geometry so tires contact the road more predictably, which often reduces uneven wear. Installation returns factory-like feeling without needing full-arm replacement.

• Reduces lateral and rotational play in rear suspension linkages
• Improves steering feedback and cornering stability
• Helps prevent premature inner/outer tire wear from misalignment

What’s included and how is the kit packaged?

This ApplianPar offering includes two separate bushing kits; each kit contains three rear arm knuckle bushings for a total of six pieces. Parts arrive ready for installation and are intended to mirror OE mounting dimensions for a direct replacement. There are no additional fasteners included, so retain original hardware or source equivalents if needed.

• Package contents: 2x kits, each with 3 rear arm knuckle bushings (6 total)
• Designed to match original mounting geometry for direct fit
• No extra bolts or sleeves included—reuse factory hardware or procure replacements

Can I install these bushings myself or should a shop handle it?

Installation requires basic mechanical skill, a press or suitable tools for removing and installing bushings, and standard safety precautions. Home mechanics with a hydraulic press or bushing removal tools can perform the swap, but shops can complete the job faster and handle alignment checks. After installation, a wheel alignment is recommended to confirm correct tracking and toe settings.

• Home installation: feasible with a press and mechanical knowledge
• Professional installation: faster and includes wheel alignment service
• Post-installation: recommended wheel alignment to ensure correct suspension geometry

Who is this for: Owners of compatible Toyota and Lexus vehicles who are experiencing rear suspension play, uneven tire wear, or vague handling and who want a cost-effective, direct-fit bushing replacement. It's suitable for do-it-yourself mechanics with the right tools as well as repair shops looking for a reliable aftermarket part to restore rear suspension function.
