    Worth investing in replacing all the bushings in 07 TRD Sport? If so, are there OEM kits? Is it something a shop should do? What was the most notable difference after replacing them?

    Guess you have a couple options, OEM or polyurethane replacements. OEM will have a "softer" feel than poly, and will last as long as the original ones. Poly will last longer. If you want to make the move to poly bushings, look at companies like Energy Suspension. They are probably cheaper than OEM Toyota bushings...

    Toyota doesn’t make oem replacement bushing for the uca or lca. I don’t believe they have a replacement bushing for the factory rear leafs either.
