Yes. It will fit on any 98+ 2nd gen GS300, 400, and 430's. It will bolt right up!
Also just an FYI - the Sport Design upper control arms are a beefier unit that also fit all the 2nd gen GS's. I'd say they are about a half pound heavier. Plus another interesting fact is that they were actually the upper control arms that were stock for all the 1st gen GS's. If you look it up the part numbers are the same for the sport design 2nd gen and the stock 1st gen upper control arms. I have a set on my 2000 GS400 and I can tell everyone they do ride much better that the stockers and add a more solid feel to the car. There is another thread about this somewhere here on the board with all the stock numbers. If anyone is replacing their UCA's on their 2nd gen GS just get the 1st gen units and enjoy the added performance and comfort.
Happy Holidays to all!
