    I recently got 300k km on my 2012 Prius. I checked rear suspension trailing arm bushings and they may need to be replaced. I could not find a tool online to remove and install them.

    The part I want to replace is called
    BUSH, REAR AXLE CARRIER Genuine Toyota (4872547030)

    Thanks in advance.

    I would go to Advance, Auto Zone or O'Reilly and rent a ball joint removal and install press tool.
