Yes, the Arnott UCA's will work with your 94LS just fine...

i stand corrected. i went back, searched, and realized i was confused. not sure what i was mistaking it with but those who have actually used them seem satisfied.

Hmmmm. Me thinks youre correct. After reading some other stuff he was selling Im getting the ones at Arnotts. They have a warrenty anyway. Thanks Bro's..

I'd replace them in a pair, as with most suspension components. If one went south, the other is surely not far behind (unless the damage was caused by impact, then you might have other issues with that instead.)

please don't PM me a question that should be asked here
AFAIK there isnt a different part number for air suspension cars, so the arnott arms will be fine. if anyone has proof of it being otherwise, please chime in.

Parts have been ordered for overnight air delivery. I also printed off the how to guide as well. I will take pictures of the operation to post because I know the eagle eyes here will see something that I may need to address later. Wish me luck LEXFAM....

Well I got em changed out this weekend and It wasnt as bad as I thought! My camera on the phone was full so I couldnt document everything.......sorry gang
New Parts arrived on time!! Yayyyyyyyyy!
Boy were you guys right.........the ball joint on the passenger side was soooo loose I cound move it with my pinky (not good at all)
The driver side was easy as pie to remove. I didnt even have to remove the shocks at all. On the passenger side, I had to pull the shock a bit to completely get the front bolt out.
Once I put them back in I torques them to specs listed on the DIY website. (That guy needs a medal for the work he put in to help out)
AND OF COURSE AFTER I WAS DONE..........
The whole thing took me about 2 hours being that this was my first MAJOR maint job. Front end alignment to finish up and off to the next project. Damn, Im motivated now!!!
Thanks for the information and the help guys. LEXNATION RULES!!!
