I am about to change out the front control arms on my 1994 es300. Is this a pretty straight forward procedure or is there something special that I need to know?

I am about to purchase these on mylexparts.com One of the parts they recommend with these lower control arms are stoppers. Does anyone know what these are used for and where they go?

Do not buy these parts from them buy them from here they are cheaper and I dont know what they mean buy stopper but they are probably refering to the lower ball joints.

i wonder why youre swaping the controls arms, if any of the individual parts have worn out, the ycan all be replaced.

otherwise, its straight forward i guess. make sure you have all new bolts[if youre inclinced to keep your car in perfect shape as i am] , and hope no rust in the threads in the frame of car. well youre in texas so inland you will not have rust i guess.

dont forget, drive it around a bit [atleast 5 miles] before getting 4wheelaligned to get everything broken in.

ariyanna , you think its best to get from lexus dealer than like aftermarket place or ebay? just wondering.
anyway, that's a good link . i wonder how much more cherry hill lexus stealership is than that place you found ariyanna? haha seriously they rob you around here

Why not just replace the bushings? Not sure if they're the same as the '94, but I only replaced the bushings on both sides on my '97
