Ok so I have an 01 gs430. Replaced lots of stuff car was driving good. I replaced front and rear sway bar links and took the car in for an alignment a week later. The aligment was way out of wack so I'm guessing having the car aligned to the old worn links brought the real bad alignment out. Now the mechanic can't get the rear driver alignemnt within spec. I see him trying to turn the nut as he claims there's only one nut to adjust on the rear and it is still way off. Before changing the links the rear was aligning perfect. Any thoughts ? Could the rear only have been aligning perfect because my links were broken allowing extra play? Or did the guy do something wrong when he installed the new links? I'm at a real loss here guys I tried researching and the bolt isn't seized so what can it be that's causing this all the sudden?

So the mechanic said I need a new lower control arm no2 since the piece that holds the thing u turn to adjust the alignment is worn down it won't let him dial in the settings correctly. Can anyone confirm this should fix it? Also while I was down there I tried to wiggle lower control arm 1 on the rear and it had a SLIGHT bit of play in it by the bushing. Is that normal or should I change that too? They're only $85 a piece from sewell so if it will make a difference I'm willing to change them. Thanks guys let me know
