Control Arm Bushing Replacement

[kpolly]

Hi there. New to the forum. I have just purchased a 2001 Sienna. In order to get it saftied I need to replace one of the lower control arm bushings on the passenger side. I have called all the auto part stores in my area and no one carries the bushing or bushing kit for it. The Toyota dealer does not carry just the bushing and said I would have to purchase the whole control arm with bushings for approx $250 canadian. I have read somewhere that the bushings from a same year Camry will work? Is this true? As I am having better luck in finding kits for those. Just want to make sure. I don't want to buy it and have my husband get halfway through the job and realize they won't fit and can't find a suitable replacement in time. Thanks in advance for your replies

I replaced my 2003 control arms (left and right) with ones I purchased off EBAY for about $100 each (OEM) plus $60 shipping. You could find Aftermarket ones for about $80 to $120 here in Canada. It's not worth the time or money to replace only the bushing and you may end up damaging it while replacing it. I tried removing the control arm myself but 2 of the bolts were frozen on and I ended up taking it to a shop which charged me $85 to replace them. Then I got a wheel alignment at Active Green Ross for $80...
