do Supra REAR lower control arms fit?
I know the front lca's fit the supra but do the rear lca's fit as well? i've searched and there is no answer on this one. my mechanics says my rear lca bushings are gone and so are the fronts and im not surprised considering the milage its been through. I do not plan on purchasing s daizen bushing kit or any other replacement bushing kit since installing it would cost an arm and a leg and i have no clue where i can get the bushings burned out and pressed in around here. i figured the supra lca's would give the best ride and it would cost about the same as getting them pressed in from a shop if i could find one. also the new arms come with new ball joints so thats another plus. but i need to know if the rear lca's from the supra fit or i might have to go another route since it wouldnt be worth it for me just buy the fronts if i need new bushings all around.

I checked ALLDATA and....
from what I can tell from the diagrams the FRONT suspention is the same on the 93.5 Supras
the REAR is different and not compatible.
*sucks but true* (I think )

You can definetly notice the difference. Most definetley. It is very noticable, the lex ride is gone. I have had them installed twice cause the first time i thought it was done wrong cause the ride was bad. Second time around the only thing that was better was that it took less time for them to start squeaking. So now i really don't wantto go daizens. IT is winter now the ride is harder in the cold they skeay even more. Plus with the harder ride when hitting bumps the car rattles a heck of alot more and rattles other things in the car loose

have you thought of trying the Valmos Bushings? They will give you back you lex ride and from what I have read are excellent quality. They are however kinda exspensive (less than a lca though) and you would still have to find somone to install them.
search google for "VFT Bushes"
also do you know which arm is bad on the rear? The upper CA is a "A" type but the lower rears are two seperatet bars Front and Rear.

Just an update guys i just got my Supra front lower control arms installed. These things are great, my car is riding like it should. Now if we can only find a solution for the rear arms.
PS. the Supra lower control arms are the way to go if you still want to keep a good lexus ride going
