i'm continuing to work on my 86 lt230s. i'm basically going through the entire quad and replacing and fixing things that need help. both a-arms need new bushings because they are worn and a little loose. not too bad loose, but enough to jerk around a little when i hit bumps. the stock replacements for these are about $18 each! i'm trying to come up with a different solution, possibly homemade, that will save my pocketbook a little.

i've tried to find aftermarket parts, but no luck yet. i thought of looking for some solution at the hardware store that should be a lot cheaper. does anyone have any good solutions that they could share? any help is appreciated. thanks.
