I researched and there are no aftermarket options in the US for these, so I just got some from a low mile car. If anyone knows of anyone that makes an upgrade, let us know.

Like G said, anyone that has a X90,X100,X110 or XE10 and the front end is starting to feel sloppy, change your traction arms immediately. I changed mine and it was night and day. Take a look at how bad mine got after 140K and a few drift events.

TRD makes a full suspension arms replacement withh stiffer bushings.. but none of it is adjustable. it's like $2g for the set and replaces all the arms

Totally different man. .. You can actually get the Spherical bearing insert for the stock arm.. But many companies make full adjsutable replacements. . the nicest by far is Ikeya Formula. . They are like 
expensive. .600ish i think... I've installed some D-MAx ones. .and let me tell you. . GARBAGE. .

funny ^ I was just going to say, isn't there ikeya formula ones.. those are probably the best there is, at least they come with a floor brace too. and yeah, they go for about 550+ on y!ja all the time, along with all the other arms.

i just remembered. for what it's worth, i bought some new traction arm and lca bushings on ebay. they look good and solid, and are meant to be pressed in to the oem arms. not anything as good as spherical bearing arms, but they weren't pricey either. i got them but didn't put them in.
