I’ve been having an issue with my LC pulling to the right. I took it to an alignment specialist and they were able to get the car within spec but couldn’t fix the slight pull. Took it to Lexus a few thousand miles later and they had their techs align it. Again in spec but the cross alignment is .7 degrees positive. Both the alignment shop and Lexus dealer has mentioned the factory LC arms are very limited in adjustability. Dealer told me to take it to a body shop so they can check if the subframe is slightly off or something. I’ll do that but my question is are there any companies that make adjustable arms or ball joints for the LC? I found the T-Demand arms but not sure if I want spend that much to do a small correction.

 

Before I finished reading your post I was going to recommend the subframe. With the installation of headers, the subframe needs to be removed. I've had the subframe removed on both my ISF and the LC when headers were installed. An alignment by a competent alignment shop that aligned both my cars worked wonderfully

 

My 2018 LC pulls to the right since it was brand new. I did so many alignments over the years and none got it 100% perfect. So please let us know if you find a resonable solution without taking off the subframe as I am sure there are many that have the same issue

 

OK, let me be more clear here. You need to remove the subframe to install headers. For a wheel alignment you loosen, do not remove, and properly realign the subframe during the wheel alignment process. It's just another alignment parameter. IMHO, it's a necessary step in doing a proper alignment.

 

oh ok! I will try to do that. Thank u

 

Oh wow. I’m actually gonna have my shop do that and I’ll report back. That helps a lot actually.

 

Since this subject is now opened, I will need some help from you guys who have good knowledge about alignment.

So I recently got coilovers for my LC and dropped the car all around by 1 inch. The front wheels looks fine. The rear ones are a bit off and as per my understanding the problem is with the camber and the OEM equipment can’t be adjusted.

my question is, if I need proper alignment, which of these items do I need? As there are many options

How off is the rear camber? If it's for the sake of making sure your tires aren't wearing too prematurely, the important thing is to make sure the toe is in spec. Looks like T-Demand does have both Rear Toe Arms and Camber Adjustable Rear Arms available. They are separate components so if you want to be able to get both in spec you'd likely need both items.

 

Thank you! I don’t have the exact measurements, but its obvious the moment you look at it. Its that bad.

The items in that link are way too expensive though. Especially if I will need both toe and camber arms.

If anyone know a quality brand with a bit more reasonable prices please let us know!

 

I would love to be proved wrong but I believe T-Demand is the only company that makes after market suspension parts for the LC500. I need these parts since I will be going air suspension. Someone suggested I go see if the LS has the same part number. I'll be looking because T-Demand is EXPENSIVE.

 

RHD Japan now sells T-Demand parts for the LC500 at better pricing depending on how much shipping is to your location. Better pricing than TOPEND.

Sweet! That's a much better pricing with the current YEN to USD conversion right now.

 

Hey! Yours was the only place that has somewhat of a solution that I'm interested in. Could any alignment shop handle this type of work? My LC pulls to the right slightly and they're saying there's nothing they could do in terms of adjustment since the car is mostly non-adjustable.

Do you think this will fix my caster issue?
