98 GS300 bushings...

Something wrong here. Rocker arms are part of some cars engines valve gear. The Lexus GS 300 uses
over head cams which act directly upon the valves, ther are no rocker arms on the Lexus GS 300. If
the dealer is talking about the suspension control arms just strongly move the top of the tires in
and out if there is any play, free movement they may be worn, any competent mechanic can easily
check them for you.
