Morning LexNation,

I got a 94 that I just started hearing a wobbling sound from the front driver side wheel. My tires are good and I wanted to know if Im thinking correctly leaning toward replacing the ball joint. If so where can I get one for my model LS.

Thanks Gang

i got a good price on a genuine oem pair off ebay (~$150). seems like it was close to the going rate from the sponsoring lexus dealerships so the vendors section is another possibility.

Well................

Found out what it was.........Right side upper control arm and ball assembly.

Cost to replace $1100

i picked up a used one for $100 from a junkyard...looked mint and working fine.

for the LS, the UBJ can not be replaced separately and u have to buy a new assembly which sucks..

Armyguy1

Yep, that it does, suck.

Cheepest one Ive seen is on Ebay for $305

Anybody you know parting one out..................or feel sorry for a Lex Owner, lol

The arnott's have been used by quite a few members and have been deemed to be at LEAST of adequate quality.

I got my genuine ones for the same price as the arnott ones. PM me if you want the contact details for the dealership here in NZ, freight shouldnt cost you too much.

Lifetime warranty, can't suck too bad. People seem to not hate them, anyway.

I'm running the Arnott UCA's and haven't had any problems with them...
