Tailshaft housing bushing
 

Does anyone know if our tailshaft bushings are replaceable? Many vehicles you can buy them aftermarket, but neither Toyota nor Subaru seem to have a listing for this part. It appears you would need a full new tailshaft if going to the dealer.

Ours looks identical to this one:

Here's the one in the car!

So I measured the one in the link above, which is a toyota bushing part num 90999-72020. It has the same measurements as far as I can tell. 38mm yoke, 42.4mm OD.

Seems like it's used on a bunch of Toyotas, but for whatever reason the dealer doesn't list it as replaceable in our cars. Sounds like a challenge to me.
