Need Lower Control Arm Rear Bushing...

Mine is 95 Mamxima GLE. I need a lower control arm rear bushing for the right side( passenger side).
can any buddy tell me where I can get that? I asked local dealer and they comes with the arm together. It is 300 more bucks...
Is it possible I can get the bushing only somewhere else?
Thanx!

You can buy the energy suspension polyurethane bushing kit, but I don't think that would be good considering it is for sport firmness and it would be better to do both sides. The install is formidable, especially in your older, winter beaten 4th gen. At least with a new control arm, you are getting new ball joint as well. BTW, there are two lower control arm bushings per side. You sure you need to repace one? For what it's worth, my 1995 SE just had the control arms swapped out (mainly because one side's balljoint boot was torn and steering was also kind of erratic) and the ride is supple and pleasant again.

You can order the bushings seperately from Courtesyparts.com, they have the set including grease. I have some that I ordered a month or so ago, I havent installed them yet because it looks as though you need some serious power tools to remove those bolts.

I had to use a big socket, a 2 foot breaker bar AND my arms to get those puppies off.
