I bought the front and rear Energy Suspension control arm bushing sets. long story short I wanted it done soon and I took it to my mechanic that I trust with work when I have no time to do things on my own. So He calls me today to tell me that one of the front sets of bushing and the rear whiteline camber bushings don't fit. I just didn't get why. He sent me a few cell phone pictures and after searching some it appears that he pushed out the sleeve along with the bushing that apparently needs to be left in. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

So does it appear that that is the true issue? Does anyone sells those individually or do I need to buy new control arms just for the sleeves. I sure hope not.

You needed to leave the sleeve in there, and I don't believe anyone makes a replacement.
Your best bet would be going to a machine shop and have them turn a new sleeve for you.

I called Mitsu and they don't sell them separately. I taled to my mechanic and luckily he only botched one side. He did the other like I told him and it fit. He will be going to a machine shop to try have a new sleeve made. Thank you for your input
