Thanks LS1. I think I do have a bent wheel, its really not that big of an issue, the car doesnt shake but at that 55-60mph, and not all the time, so its kind of a non issue for me. I need to change my oil, so next time the car is on the lift I will check the ball joints and control arms. Im almost certain the passenger side needs to be replaced, which sucks, Im tired of spending money on this car.
Wheel balance is cheap $10. Please do that first.
Rear upper control arms are a PAIN to replace, but are interchangable with 92-2000 SC300/400 and MKIV Supra. I am lucky enough to have a few spare sub-frames in my possesion so the parts are easily available. You could consider getting used control arms from "ALIGA". He has many and guarantees they're good at installation. My mech charged my $40 each to install the rear control arms.

I was in this site for information on the LS 400, but you're talking about a problem my son's car has. I located a vendor, but I think he's repoping his parts off shore. I was hoping I could get some information on the manufacturer ... has anyone ever used Arnott manufactured upper control arms for an 90-94 LS 400?
