I have a 98 Supra T.T. 6spd and just recently purchased a black on black 98 SC400 with 97K miles for my father. This SC400 has the normal inner tire wear on all four tires and the outer and middle appear to be almost new. After not being able to locate the Daizen lower control arm bushing kit I am now leaning towards taking the lower control arms off of my Supra and putting them on my Dad's SC400. I need to know this: Do most people just do the front lower control arms or should I do both front and rear? I also recently replaced the sway bars on my Supra with the TRD ones and I am also leaning towards removing the rear sub-frame mounts off of my car and than purchasing new ones for my Supra. Is this really worth all of my hasle removing them from both cars and than installing them on both cars. I just had the car aligned and the steering wheel is not cocked towards the 10:00 position anymore. The car drives perfectly straight has the normal pathetic handling. Do you guys think this is worth almost $600.00 in parts just to be able to put Supra control arms and Supra sway bars on this car? He is 64 and not a drifter or weekend track specialist. Am I most likely wasting my money trying to make this car handle like I would want it to? I just keep staring at my like new Supra sway bars and each day I find myself one step closer to just ordering them from Carson Toyota.

Thank you guys very much for the input. I guess I will just be swapping the front ones than. Does anyone have a picture of how dangerously CLOSE the supra sway bar sits next to the oil filter when mounted on a SC400? Is the oil filter still removable without disassembling a bunch of unnecessary suspension components?
