Hi Brain Trust,

I did the search and couldn't find anything. Any wisdom appreciated!

I am changing the suspension bushings on the lower front A-arms on my 1999 land cruiser. I removed bushing No.2 which is the one that is mounted to the frame (left in below photo) and it has a washer spacer (red arrow). The new one doesn't have this washer and the field service manual doesn't show a washer. . . . . .

Has anyone encountered this before? Should I install the old washer along with the new bushing? Or do what FSM says and install it without the washer?

Anyone enchanted this before?

You could check the diagrams at Partsouq. For my 2003 it shows it there but not in the repair manual. I installed it with the washer
