Question Just checking

Hello all, got a lower control arm bushing question as mine are failing. Having looked on JEPC and comparing part numbers and the VIN of my car the 2 pairs I need are MJA1360BA and MJA1360AF, so i hopped on good old ebay and all I find are "one part fits all", just want to see if there are any fundimental differences before I order. Or if there are any better sources for the right part? As I would hate to tear it all aprt just to discover the incorrect fitting parts. Thanks

the AF is obviously a newer generation part, superceded any older ones. Definitely get the newest bushing you can from the dealer (its like $15 max each) as they will be 'fresher' stock, and you won't get any oil-filled bushings like the originals. Age deteriorates rubber just as fast as mileage does, keep that in mind.
