could be balljoints, or just the control arm bushings..if you do change the balljoints out and plan on slamming the car, go with oem, i bought aftermarket ones and after a few months, they sheered right off

catano787

yea im planning on slamming it,how much does it cost to change the balljoints??

honestly, its super easy, if you got a huge breaker bar you can do it on the ground, just remember to load the suspension when you tighten the nut, but i did it on the ground in about 10 minutes eash side but i had my tools, on a lift with airtools you can do it in 5 minutes tops but cost depends, i think they are like a hundred bucks or so

catano787

ok where could i find the balljoints at a good price?and im also thiking on getting this

93-97 Lexus GS Adjustable Lowering Coilovers there on ebay tell me what you think?

so it wobbles in the rear? with stockys and with 20s? have you had your bushes and things checked out? there isnt a problem with the swaybar is there, is it correctly mounted both sides?

id get a suspension place to have a good look around. did you get it aligned when you got the 20s put on? did they say anything?

Bushings bushings bushings.. Replace them.. Start with sway bar end links,check diff bushings,ball joints, any arm bushings etc. You cant lose if you start replacing them, it will make your car ride like new again.


Also I wonder how well those sleeve over coilovers would do on some KYB GR2s?
