So why is everyone *****ing about the cost of the Lexus ones then? I am about to buy new bushings, but if I can just get Supra arms for 200 that seems like the way to go.
EDIT: Where did you find Supra arms for $200? My wholesale Toyota dealer prices them at $330 per side.

Just bought a pair of Supra front lower control arms (LCA) from Carson Toyota. Will get them put in later this week at a shop in Baltimore.
As far as the hardware is concerned, do the math.
Lexus:
Part number 48069-29215 (L) --- $700
Part number 48068-29215 (R) --- $700
Toyota:
Part number 48069-14080 (L) --- $220
Part number 48068-14080 (R) --- $220
Additionally, labor hours for this install is all over the board. Make sure you are not getting DOUBLE booked for the install, assuming you are doing both sides. For instance, one side takes 2.5 hours. Doing both sides should NOT be 5.0 hours.
Hope this helps.
Thank you.

I'm just about to do the same on my 92 SC400 which still has the original rubber bushings. I'm looking at bushing kits too (Daizen) but considering just replacing the Lower Control Arms w/ TT's.
Does a TT have Upper and Lower Control Arms as well? If so...will both the upper and lower fit the SC??
