Lower arm bushings gone out ?

EVER here that clunk when you through the fj in reverse and apply the brakes, or make a turn just as you hit a bump. Well I have, MY lower control arm bushings are loose, Im running the All Pro lift, with 35s.
So anyone else..... Is there a better fix than stock? toyota will not cover it. with the lift. AM I THE ONLY ONE ?

Re: Lower arm bushings gone out ?

I'm guessing Lower Control Arms on the front! If it's the bushings that are out call Total Chaos and see where they get their bushings, or if you can get a set straight from them. I imagine they are the same.
Hard to imagine they are worn out, but good to know.
