Control Arm bushings??

Anybody know where to get replacement control arm bushings for 2005 4x4?? Can't seem to find any for 2003+ that are for 4x4....

If you have the stock control arms are they the U shaped stamped sheed metal ones ? If so switch to some aftermarket ones. I did and can feel a world of difference. They came with all the bushings and shims, I added zirks.

I don't think anyone makes bushings for the 3rd gen 4x4's. I really want some thuren or carli arms but can't spend that kind of $$ right now....

Downloaded the Daystar catalog and no luck. I guess i need new arms to get new bushings I really want the Thuren or Carli, but too $pendy right now.

Anybody have any luck with these dt pro-fab?

Or these custom made ones from topgunzcustoms for only $240?? They both use bushings with sleeves compared to the chromoly spherical joints on the thuren/carli setup but it should still be better than the stock rubbers...
