Yes they work. Just be careful removing the long bolt holding both arms they are frozen and in the process I broke one.

All these are (it appears), is OEM arms that have been cut and re-threaded + a barrel insert to make it adjustable.....

everyone can do this at home for a few dollars.

After seeing your comment I was paranoid as they do seem a bit thin.
Today I tried fitting them only to realise that they are for the st202.
English term "cocked up" comes to mind. Looks like ill be selling them now.

Ray,

Why don't you just take your OEM arms and modify them as they have here?

cut the arm in the middle and thread the body and then join with a coupling nut

which is literally what you've already purchased.....

Because mine are quite badly corroded. I may just buy new toyota ones but I thought this was a win win with poli bushes too. Lol

It would had worked on a st202.
The GT4 has shorter thicker arms with a different bush so it did not work out for me.
