What are TRD bushings made from? Is it standard rubber?


TRD bushings are high density rubber... not quite as stiff as the poly, but SUBSTANTIALLY stiffer then 30 year old originals, and quite a bit stiffer them new OEM, or OEM replacement.

It is possible to permanently fix them... drill the center of your original trailing arm bushing ends, then thread in a zerks (grease) fitting, then use a grease gun...

similar to how I did my front lower control. I purchased a T3 adjustable LCA kit and fitted the chassis end with a bushing instead of a hard mount. the bushing end is drilled, and fitted so they can be greased
