Rear upper control arms
Hello everyone, I am having a hard time locating both rear upper control arms for my 1990 Ls400. Even the Lexus dealer aren't able to get them. Please if anyone knows anything about this part or if anyone else has had this issue, please inform me.
I'd look into a used option like this. These are still going strong on my '91 with 202k miles. Like so many things on these cars they are built to last.

Also row52.com is another resource that locates cars in junkyards.
By the way, I'm debating replacing the rear upper arms on my 99' since my rear end has tons of slop and luckily they are available through Lexus, normally 229 each, my cost is 177 each with my company's discount.
Doing just the bushings costs $25 each (TAB-176Z) x 4 so $100 total. But at this point, with 20 yrs and 155k, I think I might just spend the money for the entire arm since the balljoint might be compromised.
There is no aftermarket support for rear upper arms it seems.
