personally, for cars without apsss, i think the sways should fit. but officially, there are no words on the sways for gs460
No I don't have apss just avs. Leeladisky has the sways on a 460. I can't find the thread you are referring to.

^ send Darrel a PM at Sewell Lexus and see if the sway bar part numbers are the same between the GS430/350/460. If so there should be no reason they do not fit. Lexus said they would not fit my GS430 and they worked and I have also had no issues with mine.

I dont understand why Lexus ignore the 460 when it comes to Fsport... i dont think the rear axle or BBK of the 350 is different than the 460 but Lexus has nothing confirmed. I think they forgot than there is a 460 in the lineup

if he has the sways on 460, then there is no reason why you can't put it on yours

it wasn't when I checked last week in ATL. I was going to have them put them on if they had the updated bushings. I'll just wait until it's official and do them myself one evening in the garage.

it's not a valid part number.

amen, if i had the sways i wouldn't jump on this. in another thread member is just getting some testing bushings so that means it's not final yet, and clearly lexus doesn't have a tsib in place. i would rather have them make sure everything is ok first. they can't afford to fail a second time

Default Little off topic, sway bar bushing.

Hey sorry for the off-topic question but I was curious in the sway bar bushing bolts, or what needs to be removed. Havnt seemed to be able to find any forums for it.

on the otherhand, sway bars are purely oem replacement in every sense of the word. it will not take your dealer 5 days to install, guaranteed.
I just did mine took like 30 mins cost only $260 for front illuminated sills, I have the TSB if you need it
