Lateral Wheel movement? Not normal. Help me...
So I have an issue with the front driver wheel... When I reverse, the wheel moves laterally if I apply the brakes. it moves a little bit forward. It's the entire wheel and caliper and hub I assume. I havent had time to put it on a lift and move it myself. Any quick Ideas? Is it the Control arms or some bushings?
I'll put a video on here tomorrow.

okay, thanks for the knowledge guys.
So Just a control arm bushing set? Should probably get two (for each side) while I'm at it huh? I found some from Daizen, are there any other manufacters and/or would OEM replacement suffice?
Thanks again

Alternatively, you can reuse your LCA's by replacing just the bushings with Daizens or Prothane or whatever. You'll have to deal with a somewhat arduous job of removing the old ones first though. Be sure your ball joints are ok first though, since there are no replacements available for them discretely, and you'd be putting good money after bad to replace bushings when the ***** are shot.
If you are going to DIY and you have limited tools and skills, you may be better off just replacing the LCAs outright.

yes I have since done more reseacrh. I will infact do both LCA's. I hope to use some N/A supra's since they're cheaper.
Can I only get them from ebay and the dealer? I looked at rock auto and they didnt have lowers... Or any aftermarket supra manufacters.

I also need to replace the LCA. Looks like the 96 Supra LCA is the best choice. Someone says Carson Toyota have the best price. I wonder if we have group buy, is it possible for us get better deal???
