Front Lower Arm Replacement

[terrajn]

Hi sirs,

Just had my 2012 Vios for 50k PMS and casa recommended to replace front lower arm (left & right). Sa Monday pa mabibigay sakin quotation but right now pa lang gusto ko na makakuha ideas and comparisons:

1. Mga around how much if ako bibili ng replacement part?
2. Any recommended shops na pwede na din mag-install? better if around laguna / alabang area if possible.

Salamat po sa mga sasagot [emoji16]

Balitaan niyo ko sir if ever you are able to source parts. Worry ko kasi baka sobrang mahal ng i-quote ni casa [emoji28]

kung may bibili per piece lang mas makakamura ka kung tig isa bushing lang sira saka mo ipapa press in & out ang bayad sa mga machine shop ng ganyan.pero may mga talyer naman na may press machine sila.

the casa will probably quote the entire assembly, which will cost you an arm and a leg.
but if you have it done outside, and all they do is replace the rubbers, it should be considerably less.

what i do not know, is whether the replacing the rubber only, will give a lasting fix.

bakit replacement agad? usually bushing lang ang pinapalitan.

I'm not sure about the Vios, but in the case of the Altis, casa don't sell individual Bushings and that they are sold as "assembly" (A-arm with the small and big bushing already). Probably the same case with the Vios.. But if you can find a good third party bushing, it would also be more economical. Not sure if 3rd party parts offer Polyurethane bushings these days

may nakita nga ako iba bushing na medyo mas mahal. 800 php vs 40 php ordinary rubber.
lahat ba ng gawa ng cruven, di na ma align after palitan ng tire rubber?

heh heh.

OEM upper and lower assembly are also expensive outside of casa ... as long as you don't rough it, the rubbers will last a few years if they are of good quality ... certainly not the 40 pesos variant ...

Exactly sir, that's why I want to have it replaced outside. Have a friend who's a former SA from Toyota and recommendation niya is to replace the bushing and ball joint, OA lang daw yung sa casa kaya gusto replaceme agad yung buo. Anyway, up until now di pa sinesend ni casa yung quotation nila that's why di ko pa alam gano ka-OA yung presyo, will try to follow up later.

so here's your (and our) problem.
casa will only replace the entire assembly. they don't do bushing only.
outside the casa, they do replace bushing only. but the problem is, we do not know if this will last long or perform well.

maybe if the oem assembly can be purchased outside the casa, it will be a bit cheaper.

Will try to look for oem assembly outside casa, if replacement part kasi baka di mawala kabig.

Is Federal Mogul a good brand?

Can anyone share their suking shop which may sell lower arm bushing ng 2013 Sportage model in Evangelista or Banawe? I guess its the same for 2012 and up Hyundia Tucson. TIA!

years ago, when i asked kia pasay for a part, and they didn't have one in stock (!!!), someone there un-officially said, "dun po sa pasay rotonda".
i think he was refering to a store along northbound taft, near the vergel st. corner. if you go there early enough, you can park.

Hmm thanks dr. d. I've reached out to Seiring. Meron din sila but unfortunately out of stock un rear lower arm bushing but they do have the rear stab links.

Let me call the shops at Vergel St cor Taft. Maybe they can Grab Express the parts to me din like Seiring (which is a nice surprise).

Obviously left and right dapat but is it required to replace both rear and front at the same time?
