Anti-Roll Bar Bush Replacement

Model: Lexus IS MK 2 - Years 2005-2013
Part: Bushings

If you hear a noise similar to a thump while driving over uneven surfaces, it is likely that the support bushes of the stabiliser bar have failed. Even if only one bush has failed, it is recommended to replace both. To perform the replacement, lift the vehicle and locate the bush seat on the bar (it is not necessary to remove the front wheel). Unscrew the fixing bolts of the support bracket and lever the bar just enough to extract the bush, which has a specific cut. Then insert the new bush and secure it in place with the corresponding bracket.
