There was a recent thread on this forum on where to buy them.

 

When mine were done the rear axle was lowered.

Hi, eBay have lots of sellers of bushes, Though unsure about the  actual press tool  needed to remove.

Hi, I purchased all the rear and front bushes from  www.spring-loaded.co.uk.   I had the front bushes and lower wishbones fitted[purchased from the afor mentioned] when our Alphard had it's recent MOT, to remove  the advisory on the front and rear bushes. The garage did the front suspension, but advised having the rear ones done prior 2024 MOT as they were still OK. They did say the rears are quite a big job!!  Normally I would have done the work myself, but the 4 poster has a vehicle on it and there is much to do around the farm.

Email:  Info@spring-loaded.co.uk    I recommend this company as they have supplied me with Japanese suspension parts for years [also they are just down the lane from me].

We have huge potholes down our way, so over the recent years I have had to replace numerous broken coil springs!

This is the tool https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/394133949886  I got my bushes from here https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175987416531  some people drop the whole axle others drop one side at a time. I decided to get my local garage to do them because they can get rusted in = 3hrs labour, its easier to do when up on a 4 poster rather than axle stands/jacks on the drive, if you look on youtube there are vids on how to remove/refit the bushes
