I said I had some bushings at home (TOP) but they are for lower control arms so I had to order (BOTTOM) the ones from All-Pro as I couldn't discern the "generic" part number.

Drivers side bushings, two completely blowered out, one damaged and the flange is splitting, one is "salvageable" as a spare. Bolt is straight no damage, washers and pins are a little chowdered but not too bad, definitely should have been doing the release the torque and greasing but what I was told is to grease them when they start to squeek mine never did... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Passenger side some damage to the bushings, two starting to split two more "salvageable" for spares I suppose. Sleeves and washers even more chowdered flipped the worse of the two washers inside out, definitely need to grease regularly with the appropriate method.

That 8" all thread rod from the ECGS bushing install coming in clutch to sandwich everything together, couldn't press them in by hand and EVERYTHING WAS COVERED IN GREASE!!!

Some CHUCKLE-FUCK who did my alignment at a shop last PUT RED FUCKING LOC-TITE on this ONE nut on my right rod end. That was a fun time doing my self eyeball alignment.

Got my space and clearance back now that I have as much caster as possible.

Truck feels so much better with the new bushings in *imagine that...*

According to J-Berry's "at home alignment" thread (good read by the way) the front miss-alignment "egg" should be pointing down (as shown in the picture) not up as I have seen on every other Tacoma, I think because it's normal for the "neutral" position to have the bolt at the bottom on both front and rear of the control arm, not the case with the 2nd Gen.

Truck rides good, quite, smooth, firm, and It's almost like I got a little but of lift from having my control arms giving forward caster with the front alignment washers in the correct position. Even tracks straighter and pulls less than before even leaving for TN so for now I'm happy.

Glad you got it all squared away! Take all the measurements of the bushings then you can find them universally if needed

Wanted to, batteries in my caliper were dead, dunno if the used bushings would be accurate enough to take measurements.
