Control Arm Needed!
I recently hit a pot hole going a little too fast and bent both my front lower control arm (right), rear lower control arm (right) see diagram #10,#11. Is anyone out there selling parts for a Ls 400 years 95,96, or 97 w/air suspension? Or does anyone know where I can buy these parts used online or anywhere near south eastern Pennsylvania? I found them new on mylexparts.com but I would like to find them cheaper if possible. They where both about $100 a piece on that site.
Also does anyone know if the same parts for the es 400 or es 300 would fit my ls 400?
Or if the other model doesn't have air suspension like mine does could it still work?

The front-lower arm on that site is $224. I think you can get it a bit cheaper from Sewell. I wouldn't get a used one, the bushing is likely to be shot on it. You must have hit a hell of a hole.

He has a UCF2X. From what I've gathered, the only bushings available are polyurethane. You're pretty much on you're own if you go that route, or I totaly suck at searching. I'be yet to read anything I could find worthwhile reading concerning LS400 and polyurethane bushings.
OP, $100 per arm for a new arm and bushing already pressed in is nothing. If you want something totaly unreasonable, get a UCF1X and replace front upper control arms with OEM pieces.

I bought these and will be installing them next week. I will report back on how they ride and how difficult they were to press in.
