Rear toe adjuster froze

[krummel21]

Both of my rear adjuster are froze and I need to replce them. I can get the bolt and washer through dealer but in order to get the bushing you have to buy th whole arm. I can't find anyone that sells just the bushing. The arms are 64 dollars a peice and both adjuster are froze. Didn't know if anyone had bought this somewhere else or if you can use washer or something in the place of it.

I just saw this article and it helped me understand what was going on:

The parts list on there is it different for AWD?

Where is the best place to purchase the parts?

Hey thanks, also the parts in that article are there any different ones for AWD or are they all the same?

What part is this exactly MB911283 PLATE,RR SUSP ASSIST LI?

I have the bolt and nut just need to know what that is, the washer? If so can I just get one from True Value?

On the diagram at mitsubishiparts.com when you get to the control arm sectinon. This is just for reassurance and makes me feel dumb for double checking but the control arm need is #7 in the diagam right?

The bushing needed is already on the arm and is not the upper arm bushing in the diagram labeled #6, right?

Sorry these question are noobish and I'm almost positive I know the answers just like to have reasssurence.

Yes, number 7. And yes, it comes with the bushing. It does not come with the bolt and the metered washer. You need to call to get those parts as they don't come up in the catalog. You could reuse your washers but they are cheap and I like shiny new ones. You can't get them at the hardware store though. They are very thick and a special shape.
