I just did my rh uca cppl weeks ago. Two inner bushing bolts i believe are 39 ft/lbs and ball joint is 69ft/lbs. But dont quote me. Do urself a favour n google bahamut lexus u will find oem repair manual with torque specs. I cant do so for u cuz im on my iphone in asia, btw their gs the aristo looks sick hope i helped. Ps suspension items shud be torqued in a loaded wheels on grnd position. I always follow this idea but one thing i noticed on my new arm n the old one is that the metal sleeve tho mOulded into the bushing stilk moves independant of the bushing any input from guys that have done there uca?
