I have found that in addition to all of the other problems I have, 7 of the 8 front control arm bushings are bad to totally shot. I do not need top notch performance - where can I get a good deal on these?
Look for RK poly bushings. They're probably cheaper than new OEM units.
Also, If you want new lower a-arm bushings, I know for a fact that you have to buy the entire arm from Toyota. So, you're defiantly better off going Poly.
Ok, Horsepower Freaks wants 750.00 for a set of bushings. Granted, it is for all the control arms, however I only need the front upper and lower. I do not have time (or the money) to do the rears and they are not bad - just one upper ball joint back there is loose. Does anybody know where to get a slightly more cost effective set?

I don't believe they exist. Decent (relative) demand, very small supply.

Who came up with this 500px wide BS?
superpro/dobinson out of australia have them, but they're nearly as much by the time you factor in shipping. email george@rapotrracing.com as he is normally able to get them fairly quickly and for about the best price.
Energy suspension is also going to be releasing a set for the supra, but not for a fair while yet.
I found a set of front bushings for around $250.00 from a place called Supra Sport (I think). However while waiting for my used downpipe to arrive ($75.00 from a guy in Forida) I found a listing on Ebay - I have paid for (but not yet received) the upper and lower front bushings for $177.00 including shipping. These supposedly came from Australia, and I am hoping that they actually fit. The gentleman has one more set of upper bushings for sale for $45.00.
If you're still looking (one of the few times I can say thanks for bumping an old thread), energy suspension just came out with a complete set for peanuts. George as above has a hookup right now, and many of the normal supra shops are having early intruductory prices. I believe both ends of the car for well under $200, and all of the fronts alone are under $100
