the heim joint bushing which is pressed into the hub carrier, for the camber arm is worn and can feel the play. Also the rear most upper control arm bushing has decent forward backward play when i rock the tire on an angle. I see the control arms comes as a subassembly with new BJ and two bushings so I will get that for both sides, 180 at lex of south atlanta (cheaper anywhere else?)
Where do I get just the bushing to press into the carrier? looks lik its called knuckle bushing.

i only need the knuckle side not the chasis side as there is a heim joint there.

Also, the seal between the CV shaft and hub has throw grease all over the suspension components, is the grease seal dunzo on it, or will fixing the suspension ensure that it doesnt wobble and squeeze the grease out?

Are you talking about these???

Greg5OH

no the ones i have are like the roc usa ones i posted. the one closest to the left. Its like a heim joint.

none of the factory joints are heim joints. did you mean a ball-jointed end? You need to either take a picture or use a diagram.

Sounds like you're talking about the lower control arm or the rear carrier bushing.

i have been trying to find rear poly carrier bushings for my UCF10 all night. I sent an email off to TM Engineering about those and steering rack bushings.

its a spherical joint, its in the knuckle pressed in, camber arm attaches to it.
Founda thread in the GS forum outlining it but ofcourse didnt bookmark it.

Still trying to figure out which bushing you were talking about.

Greg5OH

its ht eopne to the right of 505. Lexus wont sell just the bushing, its a spherical joint. connects the lower camber arm from to the spindle.

ok I see now.

Also need the bushings that the Adus 578 kit shows, however theirs is only up to 95 cars. I need those for a 00.
Can get the whole arm with bushings and BJ from lex of south atl for 180 but...im cheap, and got a press. Actually, jsut rembered about CL discount, i shall give that a try

and liek i mentioned because of the worn bushing si was having grease come out where the driveshaft meets the spindle.
IS the oil seal toast or now that its not wobbling should it be ok?
