Rear sway bar bushings + end links | Land Cruiser 100 (lx470)
This did not go easy for me, but I got it done and the rear of the cruiser feels soo much more stable. Bushings are a must-do if you recently purchased a 100-series land cruiser or LX470. Hope this video helps and you get a laugh out of my misery.
Parts:

Flat Head screwdriver
bolts = M8 x 1.25

Yeah that’s a good option as well. May get the fronts from rock auto.
I use partsouq for oem parts, a little longer waiting time, but cheaper

Yeah I looked at that, but couldn’t wait lol
For my rear links I had to cut everything off and replace the hardware... Love my landcruiser but with age and rust everything is a pain in the a** to work on.

Front and back!
Dude, the service manual says to remove the rear wheels first. Maybe that's why those bolts were breaking because of all that weight on them? This is what the service manual says fror the first 3 steps before all the other stuff - 1. Remove rear wheels 2. Support rear axel housing with jack 3. Disconnect LH and RH stabilizer bar bracket (4 bolts)

I honestly don’t know how much of a difference it would make but thank you for sharing this it couldn’t hurt to follow these steps. These bolts were just too rusted.
Great video , quick question : do you have any play/knocking sounds because of that center washer on the end link bushings being a little loose?

These are cheaper and just as good
Watch again, it looks like you used 6 hours to take off, but 6 minutes to put on.
