Default Rear toe link replacements: where to buy?

Does anyone make rear urethane bushings for the factory arms? I know CS doesn't....was going to buy OEM ones from Rock Auto but they are not listed. I would hate to pay dealer prices...would prob be the same to just buy the $250 CS full replacements...anyone have a source?

I would say just buy the CS full replacements. They are worlds better and make it easier to do alignments. The stockers are terrible for this.

And I have never heard of anyone making those bushings for the stockers either.

It's easy to find a replacement when you're spending my money.


The toe links where a "while I'm at it" deal when I put in new urethane cradle and diff bushings, new trailing arms, and rear shocks. While I'm at it is ok at $100 or less...a $250 while I'm at it is a hard pill to swallow for this V1 owner.

Might be a long shot but you could look at measuring them and seeing if any prothane/energy off-the-shelf parts would do the job. Or find some used ones off a lower mileage salvage car. I bet the base CTS uses the same parts.
