So I've gone about replacing some things on my 96 ls400 like the strut rod bushings and new kyb struts to smooth out the ride or well I thought... Ride is almost exactly the same even after these changes especially hard over expansion joints in the road or bumps in general. Any thoughts or suggestions on what I should do next?

 

You done UCA's and ball joints????

 

I've done ***** joints but not uca's???

 

Get the wheels off the ground and check them for play. Shop around for replacements. Hope it helps you.

 

get the car overhead where you can take your time and study all of the various suspension joints and bushings both front and rear and it should become apparent pretty fast which are worn out

 

I'm ordering the uca's soon but are there any other factors I should look for? I'm also having some creaking from the brake pedal as well anyone have any idea what causes that? And before someone says search the forum or its strut rod bushings I've searched and replaced the strut rod bushing lol thanks

 

my brake pedal creak was cured with a caliper rebuild...

 

PD what exactly do the UCA's do? I'm wondering if because while my car doesn't bounce from the shocks it does bang over bumps and at low speeds feel like a have wobble wheels?

 

Also is oem better than aftermarket or is there just a bushing replacement option?
