Crawled under this week to take a preliminary look at control arm bushings up front. Replaced all 4 uppers myself last year. Lowers need some love now too...
I'm also considering doing the lower ball joint using the C-Clamp method but not sure I'm mentally prepared for that gig. May just pay someone.
Then if I'm C-clamping the ball joint tho, I may as well just do the bushing replacements on the lower that way as well rather than buying the whole arm...
Decisions decisions...
I also have a tiny squeak when going over bumps. Greasing the sway bar bushings up front didn't help at all. Back ones next.
If that doesn't do it, I may have to admit that shocks may need replacing, but before that I need to test it wet to see if moisture stops the squeak (indicating bushings).
I may be losing the adventurous drive for doing such physical labour.
Or I should buy more power tools...?
Took a hair drier and removed the dealer logo they stuck on the back of my LS, if they offered free oil changes to keep it on I may have left it on.

Haha - I am the same way. I never leave plate frames, stickers or any form of advertisement on my car.
Today I drove my car to get some gas at Costco, I debated heavily on washing it as I wash it by hand every week, however my body was far too sore from the gym the past few days, so I opted out.
I'm about to take it out in a few minutes to go get dinner, but that's about it. Work tomorrow so I never venture out much past 8PM

My LS got a well deserved day off. Had my brother and sister in law in town and we all went over to our club to enjoy the pool in the van.

Also, your pictures are the first time I've seen those leather like mats and liked them! The color contrast looks great!
Thanks man! I figured I’d spruce her up a little, add some tasteful improvements. The leather-like floor mats were surpringly a nice addition to the saddle-brown interior...beautiful. Very pleased with the LS460 experience thus far. Plan on having her around for a long time!

I've been eyeing these types of mats for a while, but I have been undecided as to where to get them, could you tell me where EXACTLY you got them from? so many options.. there are 2 places here in Ukraine.. there are some on aliexpress so I am finding it difficult to decide... and how do they stay in place? how do they secure on the carpets and on the sides? THANKS !
