I believe they do fit but can't vouch for anyone. For future info on pretty much anything on the SCs, check out and bookmark www.intellexual.net Very good write ups by our member lex400sc and a vey useful resource.

Thanks jet864
I also think they will fit. However,I would like to hear from someone
who actually has them on an SC400.

We know for sure that SC300 can have Supra LCAs. You might want to call up Lexus and find the part # for the SC400 LCAs. If they are the same as the SC300, then you're good to go.

the supra lca's are great, i love em! the bushings are larger on the supra lca, thats the only difference i know of. i cant tell a major difference in the ride, thats also due to my shot shocks that im soon to replace. no more squeaking, and it dosent seem to have a hard roll like it use to on corners

...but do they sit higher? I have to order these (or the Vlamos') in the next day or two, so I would really, really appreciate an opinion from someone who actually has them!

I was curious about the Supra LCA's, as well. Is the only difference the size of the bushings? If that's the case, they shouldn't cause the car to sit any higher. I would also venture to guess that the ride would be a tad softer, if you have more rubber absorbing vibration and bumps. Anyone else have any experience with these? A comparison pic would be very helpful.

someone please answer this ... I desperately need an answer on the 'sitting higher' issue. My 92 SC4 is in the body shop being repainted, but I need to order parts to address the bushing problem ASAP so I can do the suspension work when it gets out of the hospital...

The Supra part is an exact fit replacement for the Lexus part; same exact castings with the same size bushings; bushings are just a little firmer; car sits the same as it did from the factory.
The price is different ,as is the part #, however.
