Default Subframe Bushings - where to buy?

I've noticed that my 93 VR-4 has bad front subframe bushings and although I didn't check the rears I'm sure they're bad too.

On searching I can't find a reliable source of either OEM or urathane bushing kits. I saw there was a group buy on aluminum ones some time ago but they're not longer available and may be a bit of a harsh ride.

Anyways, I noticed that on Rockville's site they has "Bushings, 3000 gt, right/left, to 9/93 - awd - AWD 91-94" for about $50 per side. It's number 4 in this picture


Now in the Alum bushing GB thread it says there are 6 bushings for the front and 4 for the rear. I *think* the kit above is only 2 bushings per side??

So how many do I need and where can I get these?

3SX has these 3SX Custom Bushing Kits - 3000GT/Stealth*-*Mitsubishi 3000GT*/*Dodge Stealth
but they cost $380 for the subframe bushing kit ... but they're rubber and shouldn't these be available from Rockville for cheaper?

Help appreciated!

Hey mate,

Have a chat with Jeff at IPS. He hooked me up with a stock bushing for that part - the entire bracket actually. Pretty sure it's only two bushings (one for either side).

Cheers,

Will.

In the Aluminum Subframe bushings GB Thread I found this statement. Basically for the front there are 4 "K-member" bushings and 2 "C-member" bushings. Anyone have pictures of these?

Quote:
There are total of 6 bushings in the front sub-frame and 4 in the rear. Front sub-frame bushing has 2 different sizes. As far as I know, NA and TT share the same K-member bushing (4 bushings), but I'm not sure about the front c-member (2 bushings).
I think these are the k-member bushings:


Could these be the c-member? I wish there was a wider angle on this.
