POLY PERFORMANCE GARAGE | Episode 4: Whiteline Bushing UPGRADE for Tacoma, 4Runner & GX470

[@chrisfranco1017]

What happened to cam bolt?

[@PolyPerformance]

This truck has our Taco Tabs cam bolt eliminator kit. Its a great upgrade for rigs that get abused and constantly need alignment.

[@ClearWater7.62]

​@PolyPerformance I've read in some comments and someone asked if we need to new aftermarket camber bolts with the white lines and I was curious if I can still use the stock ones?

[@rycoah]

So do you use the stock camber and caster bolts with these bushings or do you need different ones. because those bolts and plates don't look OEM at all

[@eugentataroiu205]

What kind of maintenance are you doing for this type of bushings? Any greasing after some time or miles?

[@PolyPerformance]

Maintenance free!

[@RathaSochenda]

Awesome explanation

[@ronaldrussell5481]

Really the best mod for any suspension setup as it allows free movement as opposed to the stock as he demonstrated. Putting trick suspension on with stock LCA/UCA bushings is only a partial upgrade.

[@robinvanhaastert8123]

Are these for the 3rd gen

[@PolyPerformance]

These fit 05-15 Tacoma, 03-09 4Runner, 07-09 FJ Cruiser, 03-09 GX470. Link with more details is in the description.

[@heath2345]

Are these compatible with the 2016 4Runner?

[@PolyPerformance]

No unfortunately that gen uses a different bushing size.

[@elms1319]

Need this upgrade

[@zacharyohare6029]

Had a bit of an odd thought for these- ... could I trim the outsides of the bushings when I install them to push the control arm forward some? (trim the "fronts") and add some washers to take up the gap? I have the bushings ready to go :D If that would work, I may start prepping old arms and doing the work to replace them. I'm assuming the issue is the potential for noise/wear with metal on metal where it interfaces with the mount tabs?

[@PolyPerformance]

It is an interesting idea, but we would not recommend doing this. It will almost certainly lead to excess bushing wear. If you are keen on moving the tires forward, some people have used our Taco Tabs in an offset position to push the lower arm forward a bit. However, we recommend having adjustable UCAs if you do this to maintain proper alignment.

[@chuckfrazier2007]

Would you recommend Whiteline bushings on a GX470? I’d like a firm but smooth ride similar to when it was new.

[@PolyPerformance]

Yes they are perfect for bringing the firm feel back if your stock bushings are worn out.

[@subculturenm]

I've already had to replace one LCA on our '17 Tacoma due to a bad ball joint. Can these be pressed out of existing arms and reinstalled in new ones, if that were to happen again?And will they work on 3rd gen Tacomas?

[@robinvanhaastert8123]

Did you ever get a answer

[@twelve_thirteen]

Yes you can press them in to and put of control arms

[@pokeyflame2886]

Do these bushings need regularly greased? Im trying to install zerk fittings cause Ive heard that they do, but would I need to drill through the outer-metal sleeve on the bushing itself?

[@PolyPerformance]

These bushings come with their own molybdenum disulphide grease, but since the bushing is a complete unit that uses a inner sleeve they do not need to be regularly lubricated like traditional bushings halves do.

[@seanohara9491]

Will these be available for the 10-14 FJ cruiser?
