Scary, I don''t know why or how, but it wasn't long - so now changing caster and upper control arms as well.
Wow, only 2.5 yrs on the expensive oem brand and they popped again? Horrible quality control Lexus! I will be ordering my Moog outter tie rods/ball joints first thing Monday.

I did it myself in 2 hours for less than $200. It was easy to do, easier than I though. I had a harder time with the tie rods.
