hey guys,
has anyone ever replaced the REAR LOWER CONTROL ARMS on thier MK1 GS300? please help me
Just wondering if someone can do me a solid and locate a control arm for me.
I own a 92 aristo in Canada, and cannot, i repeat CAN NOT for the life of me find a Right rear lower control arm for it or the GS300.
I have been able to find everything else, front upper/lower balljoints and control arms, rear upper control arms, sway bar links and bushings, but after checking over a dozen aftermarket suppliers and noone can find a RR lower control arm+balljoint, and i'm not going OEM cause it's just too stupid expensive, and ebay has nothing new.
Can someone please do me a favour and call some local autozone's or whatever those stores are called down there and see if they list an aftermarket lower control arm for the right rear of a 93-96 lexus GS300?
i'll make it worth your while and give you some cash on top or a LED kit or something.
even if someone can find it at any of hte stores, and pass the number onto me and i'll call from work and get them to ship it out right ot my work or something.

already checked with jimmy, he's got like a thousand toyotas, lol, and talked to him and he wasn't able to help, only with OEM, and i could get a deal, around the same price that i could get from toyota through my work, but still WAY to expensive.
that shop is good ****, they helped me when my hydro fan hose blew a leak just outside of banff when it stranded me on the side of hte road in +33 C weather. haha

the OEM part numbers are different, so i'm not all to sure about the supra ones fitting.
what kind are your adjustable rear control arms in your SIG that your talking about?
