Default Ft Lateral Arm (rear suspension) - having trouble finding after market part

Can't seem to find a good source for this part? Anyone have experience with this?

Ft Lateral Arm - Lexus (48710-33130)

It is strange that Rock Auto and other places mostly list that part number for the rear control arm, yet it is also used as the front control arm on the ES350 and probably the Camry.

Look at the photos on the Rock Auto link to identify it and there are several and when you click on more info it gives the OEM part number for cross reference. There is a MOOG part! Only $21

I think that Moog part is the trailing arm, it shows 4878033040 as a cross reference.

to your point that the camry may have it, I did check that and found: 2008 Camry XLE part number is 48710-06130, also Avalon

I've got some emails into Moog and Mevotech trying to confirm some part numbers (some are missing, some I'm not convinced)

I prefer to stay with Moog, and its looking like I may just leave the factory part on. I'm not sure if its condition, I'm just the type of guy that if I'm taking it apart, then I'm putting new components in there. its at 147K, so its worth it at this point.

I emailed support, they assured me the MEVOTECH CMS861006 is the correct part. Part ordered, time will tell.

BTW - The Mevotech part fit. It looked a little different than factory, but it fit fine. I rebuilt front and back suspension and this was the only part that looked quite a bit different than the others. but everything aligned and driving fine. I did save the factory, just in case.
