Can you replace control arm bushings?

Hi, seems my control arm bushings are starting to split, can we replace just the bushings on our cars or is it one of those control arms where you have to replace the whole thing?

Thanks.

Best to replace the whole arm and probably cheaper if you factor in labor for a rebuilt arm.

Don't know about control arm bushings but I had some bushings changed under warranty.

Yeah a parts guy on Reddit told me the same thing and that the bushings in this gen aren't really serviceable. So probably gonna just get a set of MOOG control arms soon

Notice this /RO is for a Mirano. Is the suspension the same for a Maxima?

No, they're pressed into the control arms.
